Fishing with Papa!

While dad was here alone I decided to take him out fishing with the boys. It wasn't anything big, we just went to a little urban pond here in the valley, but we had a good time! We are planning a trip up to Strawberry to do some "serious" fishing with him this next month. Thanks Papa! We love you! Here are some pics of the outing!

New look!

Hi Halversen Family! I just went to add links on the sidebar for both Lori and Bryce's and Mark and Rachel's blogs, and it made be upgrade our template, which is why it looks at bit different from before. Hope you all like it and if you want to add any more fun links go ahead and do it!

Now it'll be nice and easy to check up on us!

Luv ya'll!

Summer Vacation in Shell Lake Wisconsin

We had our Summer Vacation in Shell Lake Wisconsin. I was very nice weather and good to see Roxanne's family again. Roxannes Parents recently got back from their mission.

It was nice to see Mom and Dad and spend some time at Taylors Falls. The next day we all went Tubing down the Apple River.

I showed the kids all of the places we grew up jumping off the cliffs into the Saint Croix River.

Star Came with them and it was great to see her. I got pictures of her rock climbing in her splint. Great to see Ron too. Thanks for all the Driving around you did for Pat and Kent.

This is the 80 foot ledge we used to get the nerve to jump off, man it would smack the ____ out of you when you hit the water.

One of Morgan's many fish he caught on our dusk trolling expeditions.

Geoff gettin Zo all set up to catch some fish.


Jessica and I found Crunch Cones at The Dairy Qween in Spooner WI. We have never seen them outside of MN or WI. What the heck!

This pic is of Geoff tell us all that he was a big Wiener!

Have a good one. Brian

Everyone is in Trouble!

So, I have been looking and I have realized that no one has been keeping up with this family blog thing! Scott, where have you been?? and Brian, get busy will ya?? One or two posts a month isn't going to kill you. It's nice to see what you guys are doing but it doesn't work if you don't do it!! Mark and Rachel are off the hook because they keep up on their own blog. Also, we need to figure out how we can get Paul's family to post too. It would be nice to see how they are doing as well. Oh wells, maybe I am the only one who thinks it's pretty cool to know how everyone is doing!

We had a fabulous 4th and I hope all of you guys did too! Check out our pictures and stories on our blog http://www.higbeesinreallife.blogspot.com/

It's funny to think it was last year that we were all together up in Midway! What a fun time that was! Here are a few pictures for a trip down memory lane! My favorite part was finally being all together again. I remember how great it was to hear what dad had to say after the slide show that last night. Hopefully you guys all remember what a memorable thing that was! Love you guys!
