Labor Day Weekend - Sunday

After church we drove to Sam and Becca's home. They were traveling home from their Labor Day weekend and due to weather didn't arrive in time for "The LaRae supper". However, we proceeded to have a fabulous evening even though we missed them and wished for their presence! We ate LaRae's favorite foods of lasagne, green jello salad, hot toasted french bread, and trifle. We watched a DVD that Becca had made up of old film. It was great. We saw Sam and LaRae as newly weds and as young parents beginning to raise their three oldest boys. It was just wonderful being together and we made some new, unforgettable memories!!
Maren looked up at Ken and said "I sure am glad you're my Uncle." To which he replied, "I sure am glad I'm your Uncle!!" Ken asked Maren, "Has anyone one roped you lately?" She thought for a moment, looked at him and said, "Only you!!"

Kate Alea and Grace Edith are getting acquainted! Kate is 8 weeks old and Grace is 14 days old.
Little second cousins who will grow up to know and love one another! That is important.

Maren gets acquainted with Grace.

Jackson is loving, friendly, and generous (he had a wolf spider to show us he had found)!

Jodi, Sedley, and Kenny

Dana and Tony

What fun it was to spend the evening with everyone I love so much!
Thanks for the invitation to spend an evening remembering LaRae
and having a "LaRae Supper".

Thank you so much for posting this. I feel terrible for not making it back in time. I'm glad to see the pictures and know that you had a good time. Thank you for all you do. I love the picture of Uncle Ken and Maren. What cute comments from them. Baby Grace looks so tiny next to Kate. Jill looks great!, and so do you:)
