This Saturday was the day my Niece planned a Cousin's get together in Moses Lake, back at the Rose Street Chapel where my parents attended Church with us growing up. It's been a while since these cousins have seen each other. l-r: Allan Dale, Danette, Derlyn V, Jeffery, Milton, Sarah, Joe.
Lucky me, to be invited to go too so I could see 2 of my brothers and sister.
l-r: Roma, Allan, Derlyn, & Me (Mary)
One brother was traveling home from Seattle and didn't get to come. A Picture w
ith our spouses too.
l-r: Mary, Paul Sheila, Derlyn, Allan, Roma, Gordon
James and his son Austin came late. Cynthia &Derlyn V.
There was food and it was yummy! I didn't take pictures of the Desserts. I made my Truffles and Banana Bread.
Skyping with Beth Ann in Oklahoma. She wanted to be there so bad! Next time...
Even Santa came and brought gifts for everyone.
I set out some things from my Mother and Father to share memories. Two Digital Frames played a slideshow of Family pictures too. A great legacy of my mother's talents, Daddy's pictures and love of Family!
A trip to Moses lake is not complete without a stop to honor my parents. Thanks to Brant and Tina for the roses. 2 red ones - perfect to leave in the snow. So glad my Army boy, Jeffery would drive us there and back safely and take the time to stop. We stopped by Paul's parents assisted living Apartment on the way home to say hello and visit. It snowed most of the day but didn't stick so the roads were ok. Just one more gathering and my Holidays will be complete! Happy New Year's with the Crowther side.
So glad you were able to go and that Jeff drove you safely there and back. Sweet of you to stop and leave roses for your parents too.
ReplyDeleteSorry we missed it, but we were happy to be in the Temple with our friends getting married.
Looks like a really special day, Mary. Happy times!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a perfect day! We haven't had snow yet up east of Seattle, except for the mountains (of course).
ReplyDeleteOne of these days I need to head down your way and explore my new state.
Looks like a good day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun and wonderful time!! :)
ReplyDeleteFun! I don't know if I've met many of those cousins... Glad you could use some roses for the grave! The scarf looks good! :)
