Wow! A busy weekend!

Drove to Cottage Grove, OR for our annual Family reunion for my Dad’s side of the family.

Left early Sat. morning and about 6 1/2 hours later we arrived at the park.

Visited with the family members camping there for a few hours. Sat by the campfire and visited, until the smoke set off my asthma and off to the car for my rescue meds.

We had rain and wind off and on all weekend long. Luckily the Sunday celebration was in a Gazebo, so we didn’t get wet.

Not alot of people came from our side of the family, but this year, the oldest living relatives in the family, Uncle Vic (almost 94) and some of his family joined us. Last Year it was my Mom’s family that  joined us.

Mona and Gina both called their Dad yesterday morning to wish him a “Happy Father’s Day!”, made him smile! :)

When I get back from our NJ trip, I will add some pics for both trips.

Off to pack again!

Jakob having fun!

The other day Jakob was playing at our house. He plays with empty prescription bottles and pretends he’s bowling.

But on this day, he was being silly with them!

He’s quite the kid! never know what next will happen!

He spent the night on sunday night and before I took him home Monday, he hid a DVD in my living room. When we got to his house, he told me and said I needed to go home and find it!

I found it! It was hidden in the sweatshirt of the stuffed bear sitting on back of my couch. :)

Creativity!

Hmm??? What’s that?

I’ve not done much creating lately. I really need to schedule me some crafting time soon!It takes me longer to do my household stuff these days. I’m slowing down way too much!

I’ve got to make Rudy a new golf flag for out in the pasture at hie one and only golf hole.

I need to do some mending, Rudy has several pants and shirts needing some attention and Kaitie has some shirts here I need to work on.

I am so slow these days!
