Summer, Family, Love

The wheelchair is a handy invention - up and down the steps from the park to my backyard.


Gramma and Papa made the trip from Wenatchee to Kirkland to see their three daughters
13 of their 20 grandchildren and 15 of their 20 great grandchildren! Julianne tries her best to get a choir going

I could post a zillion pictures to capture our day!

Love all the pictures! It was so good to see everyone. We don't get to do this enough!
Thanks so much for your wonderful hospitality. It was fantastic.

If we are pilgrims on this earth and our citizenship is in heaven, then certainly your backyard JoAnn, is the Mayflower.
The generations are enfolded into the very definition of family by your love and sacrifice. These days don't come about without considerable planning and hard work. And thanks for landscaping your yard for US.
I feel like I was there.
What a blesing for the little people to be blessed with the presence of their great granparents.
Charles mentioned how glad he was to meet a new cousin named Jessie!
Love you much!

Looking at this blog tonight for the 10th time. Thinking of your great event today and sad I'm not there to join in. Praising God for his faithfulness to you.
