Jess and Jason's Wedding

We had a glorious weekend at Lake Winnipisaukee as guests of Carl and Barbara. They left for the weekend to stay at the hotel and Lee, me, Aunt Joan, Uncle Dick and Diane took over the house. Friday afternoon we visited with family at the hotel and then went to the after dinner bonfire. Saturday we were able to enjoy the lake and did some kyaking as well as visiting with family and friends. The wedding was spectacular... the weather was gorgeous, the site was breathtaking and the bride and groom looked stunning. Our three kids, their spouses and the nine grandkids drew a crowd wherever they went. But, they were the cutest kids EVER all dressed up in their best outfits. Thanks for a wonderful weekend!!

August at Camp

We had a wonderful few days at camp with the family just before Jess and Jason's wedding. Lee took and extra few days of vacation to spend time with Jeff, Irene, Cindy, Josh and families as well as Aunt Diane from Texas. We had the first rainy day that we had for a couple of month, but we spent time in the basement with all the kids and our new "cornhole" game as well as decorating Tucker, reading books and making puzzles. The next day we were out in the sunshine and swimming again. It was wonderful for all the cousins to meet again and to get to hold my brand new grandson Ryan.

Happy Anniversary

Happy 60th Anniversary Mom and Dad. You are an inspiration to us all!!

And Baby makes Nine!!

As we were taking our oldest grandson out to celebrate his 8th birthday.... Irene was in the hospital giving birth to our youngest grandson Ryan Jeffrey. He was born on July 31st (one day early) at 8:40PM... 7lb 11oz and 18 1/2 inches long. Can't wait to meet him!!! Congratulations to Irene, Jeff, and big sisters Lily and Emma.

Happy Birthday Trevor

Thanks for coming to dinner with us and browsing thru the isles of "Toys 'R Us". Birthdays thru the eyes of an 8 year old are so fun. Hope you had as much fun as we did.... :) Love you!!!

Happy Birthday Josh

Have a "COOL" Birthday with all the family!!

Ike's Win

It was a sweltering hot dog show on Friday and Saturday in New York. We got thunderstorms on Saturday night to cool things off for Sunday. Ike really surprised me and took Winner's Dog on Friday for his first two points. He also got pulled by the judge for Winners on Sunday, but ended up taking a Reserve (2nd place). He's turning out to be a fun little show dog and I think that he'll be really good at agility, too. He'll probably do a few Pre-Novice fun runs at our trial in October. We're taking a great class with an awesome instructor in NH and really learning lots.
