Family

It was so good to get to see many family members this weekend! Perhaps a new tradition has been started. Paula Van Ness from La, Steve & Teresa Trager from IL, Sam & Michelle from NY, Jon & Mandy & kids, Nason & Sara, Valda & Dave, Becky & Dale, Heather, Vanessa, & Emma and Uncle Ralph were all able to gather together for the Liberty tenderloin dinner, surprise baby shower & good times at Ed & Emma Jean Van Ness'. Of course we were there too! Sunday was more of the same with a visit from aunt Peggy...who seems to be one of my childrens favorite. (understandably)

I can't think of anything better than laughter with family. Such good times and great memories.

It's always a good thing when family can come together. Friends are nice and serve a purpose, but it's just that much nicer when your family are your friends too. Looking forward already to next year.
