McEntire Pictures KIM MCENTIRE just posted on FB


These are just a few of the pictures she uploaded...most of the pictures that she just posted are very old 2, 3, and 4 generations old.  It's very cool.  She got them from Ron, who got them from Mauna (the keeper of the photos)

More Pictures of the MCENTIRES

I love going through these pictures, this is just a few of them, I'm going to post about 40 of them to facebook today - these pictures here on my blog are mostly pictures that have my Dad in them.





Grandpa and Grandma McEntire, Marv (oldest),Paul, Susann, Jim, Marcia, Brenda and Baby Richard


This is an Aerial photo of St. Ignatius farm, 1966

I absolutely LOVE this photo of my Dad (Marvin) and his little brother Paul

This is a picture of my Dad (Marvin) and Paul and Susann with Great Grandpa James McEntire outside of his motel in Clearfield, Utah

Grandpa's Amphibious Jeeps in the Pioneer Parade in Clearfield, Utah

An adorable picture of my Dad, 13 months old.

This is a picture of my Dad at 13 months...I have a picture of my son Tyler that looks EXACTLY like this. I'm going to find it and compare them side-by-side.
I love this picture too of Grandma with baby Paul and my dad (Marvin). Isn't that dog in the background adorable.


Aunt Mauna holding my dad, age 4 weeks.


This is my Dad in his WAY COOL 70's jacket with Grandma McEntire


This is Great Grandma Graham holding my Dad at 3 weeks



My Dad at 13 months


Grandpa William McEntire, holding my Dad (look how long and skinny he was.)


This is Grandpa William and Grandma Marie holding Jim, with Marvin, Paul and Susann, standing outside their house in Clearfield - on the back of the picture it says "Smith Village - 1948-49" Well I'm looking at this picture and I just realized "Smith Village" is a neighborhood where OUR (my husband and I)first house was - so I'm going to take this picture up there and see if I can tell which house was Grandma and Grandpas.

I just love these amphibious jeeps that they brought back from Hawaii - I bet they'd be worth a lot today. This is a picture of Grandpa William, Grandma Marie, Paul and Marvin


So cute! Look at the cute leather hats that all the boys are wearing - LOVE IT. This is a picture of Grandpa William, Grandma Marie, Marv, Paul, Susann, Jim and Marcia

Tyler's Hobby


Tyler is such a great hunter...he hunts everything - ducks, geese, dove, turkey, deer, elk and anything else you can get a license for.

This time he got a banded duck (the little silver band on it's leg - makes this a "special" duck) I guess.  He'll get a certificate for it.

I'm glad that he and his Dad have so much in common. They have a lot of fun together.

Salt Lake Temple


We had fun on our family outing yesterday. First we went to see "The Box" (strange movie). We were glad it was at the $2 movies. Then we went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. Yummy.
Then we went to temple square to see the beautiful lights.



It was so cold and frosty, it was beautiful.  I love the Salt Lake Temple.  I remember standing on the gates with my friends in high school, and telling them that that was the place where I was going to get married.  I think that it's the most beautiful building in the whole world.



We had so much fun last night, the lights were absolutely beautiful.  The big huge pine tree, south east of the temple was loaded with red lights and it was breathtaking.

HAPPY NEW YEAR









HAPPY NEW  EVERYONE!!!!!
