FAMILY!

Here is 13 year-old granddaughter Ashley with one of the family pets. Jake is a 7 1/2 year old Newfoundland. According to daughter Amanda, Jake is bigger than the breed standard by a few pounds. At his heaviest, he weighed in at 186. He currently is around 165. He sheds enough hair to fill a 50 gallon garbage can. And Amanda added, “Thank god he doesn't drool THAT much”. He is a lover and a very gentle boy. Ashley has been walking him (or sometimes he walks her) since she was 7 years old. Amanda & Marc’s local chapter of the Friends of the NRA recently participated in a show at the Vancouver Sportsman’s Warehouse. Shown here is Eddie the Eagle. He promotes gun awareness and his motto is: Stop! Don't Touch! Leave the Area! Tell an adult! Ashley wore the suite for 2 1/2 hours on Saturday and Marc did two hours on Saturday and an hour on Sunday. And shown here is Donna, enjoying this year’s Harvest Day’s Parade in Battle Ground, WA. this past Saturday! Thanks Laurie for the parade photo!
