Alder stuff

Mom wants this on the blog and I think it's pretty cool. I am going to link to a few items that we have scanned in. The first is a copy of Uncle Matt's scrapbook he put together for his sisters that has Grandpa Alder's theatrical career:

This next link is also what Matt put together about the Salt Lake Theater group of which Grandpa was an integral part:

Just to check and see who is reading this blog, we are announcing the following:

MEG IS PREGNANT!!! This is not a joke, delivery should be around the end of March. Love it!

Johnny, Meg and monkeys

Sliding Rock!

We went to Sliding Rock for the Alder Family Reunion, which everyone begged to do then only a handful showed up! If you didn't come, you missed out! My dog Sheba went down, as did a bunch of us. And yes, I did mean to go down backwards. Here are the videos:

Thacker Life

Just thought you'd all like to know that Brett is doing pretty good. He has interviewed at 3 places and hopefully we'll have some feedback soon. In the meantime, he is going to work part-time back at Consonus while he looks for a new job and goes to school to get an Executive MBA.
And yes, I AM teaching preschool this Fall.
Hope all is well with you!

Stewart Falls

We hiked to Stewart Falls tonight with all the monkeys, had a great time. The kids all have cuts and bruises and loved the hike. Tess fell asleep on my shoulders the last mile back, pretty funny stuff.

Stadium of Fire 2010

Hannah did an outstanding job as a "Stadium of Fire" dancer! The fireworks were awesome and so was Carrie Underwood! It was a great night! Happy Independence Day!

Maine - Timber Tina's Show

Here is Addie and Emmie in a video at the Great Maine Lumberjack Show while we were in Maine. Emmie volunteered to go up for the contest. She wouldn't go without Addie, so they let Addie participate as well.

Enjoy the show -- sorry it's bouncy, it was on my little digital camera.
