We certainly have many memories from our children growing up and the camping trips. Especially when the camper heater ran out of gas in the mountains. Got a bit cool that night and of course we could not cook breakfast. It was fun! It was so nice that Kenny and Tim stayed close as they grew up and were able to help each other through rough times. Who would have ever thought that Tim and Shawna would end up together and we would be related, sort of!! Our thoughts and prayers are certainly with you all.
