These are updated photo's of the Graduates

Graduation

Both Parker and Charlie graduated from High School and Parker also graduated with a 2 year degree at college and will be attending University of Washington in Seattle, and Charlie has submitted her mission papers so exciting times in the Cole Family.

Darin brought Alice and Carter over one weekend and walked out without Alice's Sunday dress, so I got out this one of Mom's and with a little belt adjustment she was able to wear it.  I think Mom would have been a teenager when she wore it, so looks like we can have Alice wear it now, and then for several years.  Elaine showed the photo to Marigene and she said Avon would have made it because she made all their clothes, so what a fun bit of history, and neat memory for a great granddaughter

My Car!

Roger has been trying for a couple of years to get me to trade in my Yukon and his truck for a "Truck" and finally talked me in to it with the understanding that it will be "MY CAR" as he will have his little GEO tracker while in Oregon and the Jeep we leave in Yuma.  So here is my car and it actually has more room in the back seat than the Yukon and has the running boards that retract.  Needless to say his tool box did not go in the back because I got a cover instead.  Our phones are synced so if you call while we are in the truck it comes through the speakers just like the On Star which I was sorry to not have in the Ford, but this is better because there is no extra charge...FUN!
We've had a great summer so far with lots of friends and family coming to stay at the Tilton Hilton.  When Steven came down from Kennewick I had a house full of boys and one little Princess for the weekend.
