My birthday present to her, let's just say "excited" was an understatement when she saw it.

Nothing says rustic seating like a log with a section taken out and made into a bench

I know Bruce is her real father but I do not know if I am ready for Holly to have a boyfriend yet. We have all been watching her grow up over the years and this is going to be hard.

At the airport a few mins before i had to go through the security checkpoint and could no longer be with everyone, this was the saddest moment of the whole trip for both of us, even if you can't tell by the smiles.

Hard it is but at least with Reid we know she is in good hands (and that is not to be taken literally Reid!). As Bruce says, Reid is a great young man and comes from a great family. Best thing that has happened to Holly in a long time and certainly isn't hurting Reid either. Thanks for posting the picture Reid. She indeed looked excited. See you all in August!

I am so happy that Reid came out to visit. We had a great time at the Day on the Lake, the Grand Canyon and swimming in the pool. I LOVE my bear that Reid got me for my birthday.

I can't wait to go and see him in a month or so.

Congratulations Holly! I got a little choked-up reading through this thread! My parental side is very sensitive. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif

I myself have enjoyed the hospitality of the Blythe household and it is second to none. One complaint though is that I did NOT get to drive the Chevelle! Count yourself lucky there Reid. Well, Bruce did do a nice light-up launch while we were out for a ride.

I never tire of flying over the Grand Canyon and the San Francisco mountains of Flagstaff. I call it &quot;Route 66 country.&quot; &quot;Easy Rider&quot; was filmed through there too and one of my favorite scenes from that movie is when they ride up toward Sunset Crater and the Byrds &quot;Wasn't Born to Follow&quot; plays.

Hey Bill...you are always welcome...and yes, you can drive the Chevelle <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

BTW, please don't EVER take some pictures and video from the cockpit of the plane as it's going over the canyon...and then send them to me.

I'd just hate that <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/eek.gif

WOW, an official sYc 'romance' thread <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/youguysrock.gif Reid &amp; Holly make a nice looking couple! Hope you're both having a great time together. With the exception of the brutal humidity, the midwest in the summer is a lot of fun.....hope you have a great time there, Holly!
