My uncle, Cary...who makes furniture out of cedar, including this ENORMOUS table (perfect for cards and Catan). Here he is installing a lazy susan:
Here we all are (we take up two rooms)!! At the very back of the room, (starting at 12:00), it's me, Brandon, Sarah, Ryan (we have two of them!), Troy, Whitney and Delaney. Then at the table in the front (starting at 12:00) is my cousin Ryan, my grandma, Aunt Kay, Uncle Cary, Aunt Deb (Cary's sister), Uncle Tom (married to Deb), my mom, my dad, and Bobby (Shannon was taking the picture). Not Pictured are the rest of the kids, (Grant, Emily, Roy, Dale, and Anneliese) who must have been sitting on barstools in the kitchen (or taking naps):
Delaney was insisting on hugging and kissing Anneliese (who was sort of in to it for the first 20 kisses, then she felt a little bit smothered and started to cry):
The Lockwood Family (Shannon, Bobby, Grant, Emily and Anneliese - who decided she might not want Emily in the picture after all?):
Cute, cute, cute...
Cute, cute, cute...
Here are all of Kay's grandchildren...Roy (barely peeking through the crowd), Anneliese, Grant (being a big brother), Emily, and Dale:
My cousin Ryan, his wife Becky, and their two boys, Roy and Dale (who was not in the mood for family photos):
I told Delaney that if she was really still for her pictures, she could get some lipstick! (this was not Troy's favorite idea, but that's what Aunts are for, right?):
Gorgeous sunset:
Perfect ending to a perfect weekend. Actually, the perfect ending was KU beating MU in the Border Showdown!! Best game EVER!!! Ryan and I drove home (with the dogs) on Saturday night. I woke up on Sunday morning to the smell of fresh coffee, a fire in the fireplace, and falling snow! It was perfect! I spent the day, putting up our Christmas tree and enjoying all of the blessings in my life.
