Family Visit

Gretchen and Brian arrived on Tuesday for a much anticipated, long awaited visit. We have been having so much fun laughing, playing, eating and just enjoying each others' company.



Yesterday, we made a quick visit to Pennsylvania to visit with family. It was a delightful day and I thought I'd share a few pictures.
Gretchen and Brian posing with Aunt Carolyn and Uncle Dale. Gretchen is so happy to have a chance to visit with her family and Brian is loved by everyone.


Gretchen only gets to see her dear grandmother every two or three years so it was all smiles while they were together.

Our nephew, Derek, was unable to join us, but his wife and children were able to spend time with us.

From left to right, Brian, Gretchen, Anita, Analiese, Alexandra (twins) and in front, Andrew.

Anita, a lovely mother, wife, niece and cousin. Oh yes, daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law. We love her.

Say cheese, children.

We had a wonderful day, a yummy dinner and drove home in a blinding rainstorm. We all slept peacefully last night.
