Welcome Baby Cagen

Well I would love to introduce my nephew Nash Adam Cagen. This is the new Dad and older Sis. Nash is the sweetest baby ever. Its nice to add a boy to the group. So far we have 2 girls and 1 boy. Rachel is doing well, it was a quick labor but she was a week or so over do so she was more than ready. Ha ha ha! We all went up the weekend after he was born. Steve and Natasha were in town also which was amazing cause they come all the way from Mexico City. It was nice to all be together. Below is a proud cousin Kaia. Stella and Kaia are the best of buddies and love every minute they have
together.

The Girl's

This is Stella and Kaia, my 2 favorite nieces. Ok I only have 2 nieces. I love them so much and of course spoil them rotten.
Chris, Sarah and Kaia went up to Seattle to visit Dave, Rachel and Stella.
Dave and Rachel are expecting a new little guy here any day. They have remodeled there whole basement to make room for the new addition. They are having a little boy and I believe his name is going to be Nash Adam Cagen. So adroable. Fits that family perfect.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF GRANDPA

Earl R. Pond
October 3, 1923 - July 21, 2008


Well for those of you that do not already know, my grandpa died suddenly on Monday July 21, 2008. He was a loved grandpa, daddy, friend, great grandpa and role model. He will be missed dearly. It has been a tough week or so but we will all get through it. He will never be forgotten in anyones mind. He would always make you smile or laugh no matter what. If you ever got the HONK BUZZZZ GEECH you will know what I am talking about. We all went to Idaho for the beautiful services. Grandpa was creamated and is sitting on the shelf in his house right above his favorite chair, there he will always be able to watch over grandma and keep her protected.

Grandpa we love you and miss you so much. One day we will be able to be together again.

Baseball in Corvalis......

Ok so this kid is amazing......this is my cousin Joe. He just graduated from Judge Highschool in SLC, Utah. Joe has been pitching in baseball since I can even remember. WOW this kids got an arm. He was just recently up in Corvalis, Oregon playing summer ball, so my Mom and I made the drive up to see him pitch (its only and hour and twenty minutes). He only pitched 1 inning cause he was tired and had pitched the night before, I think the only reason he pitched was cause we came from Portland and he felt bad. :-) It was hot so I totally understand. It was good to see him play. Great game Joe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joe was drafted in the 39th round to go pro by the Phillies. I am not sure if he has a set plan on what he is gonna do. He may go pro or he may go to college at the UofU and play his college years first. Good luck Joe and look forward to more games.

BTW........Baseball guys are HOTTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know they are recently graduated highschoolers are to young but WOWzers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know I am a nerd.
