The Roush's big move...
Offically here is the rumored announcment...as of August first we will be residents of the metropolis of Cascade Locks (that's in Oregon, East of Multnomah Falls, West of Hood River...think bridge of the gods)! We look forward to friends from both ends of the Gorge (& yes Vancouver counts!) coming to enjoy our HUGE yard...we are very excited to move to a place where we can entertain like we used to? Questions....guess you'll have to e-mail me :o)

And they are back in 'merica
My sister DenaRae, husband Doug, boys Thomas and Andrew are back in 'merica...although Andrew wasn't so sure when they were in Houston if it was REALLY 'merica...smart kid. (PS note I finally figured out the date on the camera! Woo Hoo!)
My, my, my Look who is 19!
Stevani Christine Ballweber entered my life @ 10:10 a.m on 26 June 1987 @ 9 pounds 10 ounces & 22 inches long... and I've never been the same. I am truly blessed. Stevi literally looked around the delivery room before she was cleaned up, walked at 10 months and spoke complete sentences before she was a year old. At 13 months it was hot in Hood River. She came in the house, took off her diaper, threw it away & took me into the bathroom where she promptly pointed at the toilet. I never would've thought of potty training that early, but Stevi was ready to conquer the world...not a diaper or accident from that point on! Stevi welcomes my grandbaby (whom I call Riley while he is in utero) in late November. Again, I am blessed!

Lulu, Luke, Heather & Dana
Is this a great looking group or what? In Kennewick just before Dana's graduation....
Graduate Dana Marie Easterly!
Dana graduated in Kennewick, WA...we had a great weekend together! Go Dana!
Megg & Lu after church on Father's Day
Lulu was helping promote the All Church Luau...our friend Kat caught me at a "weak" moment & I agreed to have a picture taken...
The First Cut is the deepest...
Lulu getting the first cut to donate her hair...It all began when Lulu & her friend Katie White decided to grow their hair out for Locks of Love, to be cut Summer 2005...well (pun intended) Lulu didn't make the cut...her hair was not long enough (10 inches needed). After she "missed" the cut off @ Relay for Life 2005, her hair started growing like crazy! Add to that several gals of all ages at our church took up the challenge and began growing their hair too! Two little girls effort (colored by cancer in both families) sure brought great rewards for children with cancer. Children with cancer cannot be mentioned without thinking of Kevin who has been gone for nearly 14 years...although Lulu and his sisters Katie & Amy will never know him here on earth, their love for him is humbling...the actions they take in his "honor" revealing. We are truly blessed.
16 1/2 inches later
Miss Lulu donated her hard work to Locks of Love & we sure are proud of her effort! For more information on Locks of Love you can visit their website
