Blessed Four Times Over (and then some)


All of our children were home this weekend, some for longer, to celebrate the 60th wedding anniversary of my in-laws. Such a milestone! Sixty years is worth a lot of celebrating. We had a wonderful dinner with 14 on Friday night and played a Jeopardy type game that Rachel made up based on June 5, 1949, their wedding date. What special memories we created.

The time flies too quickly. We play, visit, and eat very well. There's always something going on that no one wants to miss. Too much to do and so little time. We have a wedding to plan for for next year and I know that will involve more trips home (lucky us.)

Now everyone is safely home, back with their significant others. They weren't all able to make the trip but I know that their hearts were with us. Steve and I are so blessed, many times over. Our four children have brought more wonderful people into our lives than we could have possibly hoped for. I don't know what kind of luck we had in them turning out so well and finding such thoughtful and loving spouses/fiancees but we were and we appreciate it more than ever.

So here's to family, memories, and friendships, good food, fun, and cards. We love you all. Thanks for your caring and love.
