4 Generations of Butler Men!


While in Bend for Thanksgiving, we thought it would be nice to get a picture taken of the 4 Generations of the Butler men. Its something really special to get to see 4 generations. Included in the picture is Great Grandpa Bill, Grandpa Dave, Pappa Jared, and little Colin Andrew.

First Thanksgiving

Colin went to Grandma & Grandpa Butlers' house in Bend for his first Thanksgiving. He got to spend some much needed time with both mom and dad, as he rarely gets to spend time with both at the same time. (dad is gone alot). He also got to meet his Great Grandpa. he had alot of fun. Colin tried mashed potatoes for the first time! And he also stared Grandpa B. down the entire time Grandpa was praying. here are some pics of his time in Bend.
