Family Reunion Bound


After Brett's parents rescued (towed back) our busted boat from Lake Powell last week end, his mom said to him "now you're going to the family reunion - right?" Hahaha!!! There was no getting out of it now. Actually we were already going to it anyways but this cinched it FOR SURE!!! Only death or worse could have prevented us from attending after that favor!!

So I made up a pasta salad, we packed up some chairs and all the kiddies and headed out for Brett's grandpa's family reunion.

There was lots of great food: (sorry Roxy... I'm famous for taking pics of people in the middle of eating... just ask Dede)
and the kids had a great time playing:



Of course everyone thought Brett was still single because he wasn't wearing a ring...
just kidding (he did get teased a lot for losing it though.)


I have to say that I love Brett's family and did from the very start. They are wonderful people full of generosity and love that welcomed me in and made me feel a part of the family. I am family.
Families come in all shapes and sizes but nothing beats the love of family.

Thanks Dede! But, if you think it is hard to get Brett to smile (and it IS) you should see how hard it is to get a good smile out of my brother-in-law... right April? hahaha!!
