Ann says

Liz made the trip to Milaca with the kids to camp with Matthew - Matt has been working up there since May. They were going on a charter boat to fish, haven't heard if they had any luck. Mark and Nicholas went camping over in Winona for the weekend. Roger and I worked hard starting to bring home our winter supply of wood, pretty productive, huh?

Hayes Family Reunion

Greetings to one and all,
I hope you all have plans on being in Stewartville on Saturday, June 30. We will be grilling and hope to start eating about 11:30 to 12 noon. If any of you have lost your info or need directions, hopefully this will answer some of your questions. The reunion will be at Meadow Park in Stewartville. Ken and I stopped there a couple weeks ago, and it looks like a really nice park, with lots of things to do. There is a sand box, if you have shovels or pails that you would like to bring for the little ones. There are lots of grassy areas for balls, or games, and playground equipment. The directions to get to the park is as follows; if you are traveling from the north and heading south on Highway 63, you will turn left on 6th ST NE, right after the bridge going into Stewartville. And if you traveling north coming from the south, you will turn right on 6th ST NE just before the bridge as you are heading out of Stewartville. After you turn onto 6th ST NE, just follow the signs for MeadowPark North, which is a left turn heading north again. It is a windy, gravel road into the park. WE WILL SEE YOU ALL THERE.

Storm hits home




Michelle and Spencer came home to quite a surprise Thursday afternoon (June 7,2007). A big branch had fallen on their home!!! I think Zach thought it was kind of neat. Michelle wasn't real thrilled about it, she had lots of other things to take care and making lots of phone calls to insurance, public utilities and whatever else was needed wasn't in her plans. But Spencer had fun playing with the chain saw. But thankfully no real damage was done, and no windows broke.

Savannah's web site & Angela's news

Thanks for posting our picture, Aunt Mary! For anyone not looking, yep, there's FOUR of us there. Down in the lower right, that little tiny peanut with the tubes, is Savannah :) This is the first time I was able to hold her outside her incubator.

She's doing extremely well, and if you'd like more progress and/or view more pictures, you're welcome to visit her Care Page (provided by the hospital, kept up by Deron and I) - http://www.carepages.com You'll have to register (it's free), and then the page you want is called Savannah521.

~ Bob, Julie, Jimmy - It's a shame you can't make it to the reunion, but I hope you'll have a great time in Alaska! The salmon and halibut won't know what hit them!

~ Shawn, you've been in my prayers and will continue to be there, as is the rest of your family. I hope you're recovering nicely.

~ Matt & Liz - Sorry we couldn't make it to your reception (work issues). I hope it went well! Mom said she had fun :o) You're two very special people with a lot of love for one another. May it grow and blossom through the years and provide you with many happy moments to cherish and remember on your front porch when you're ancient *wink*

Ernie ~ Dang, nice turkey!! We've got pheasant that run through our backyard occasionally :o)

I hope everyone in the family is doing well. We'll be at the reunion, although I'm not sure if we'll be late or leave early, due to seeing Savannah at the hospital. See you there!!
