Family Time.....lots and lots of pics!!

On Saturday we had the family together for a day of visiting,

playing and great memory making!

As always.....we ate lots of food....took lots of pics....and had lots of fun!

My parents, Dale and Lois Hopkins came to see everyone too....

which made the day even more special! After supper we enjoyed birthday cake

(made by Emily) and I was sung to by a very nice group of singers....our family!

It's not significant that I turn another year older........but it is significant that I am able to spend time with our wonderful family and have the strength and stamina to enjoy the day!

However on Sunday.....after church...I did enjoy a two hour nap!!!

This is me getting in Ken's top drawer to get some candy for the kids!

We call it "Grandpa's Stash".....and the boys knew exactly where it was!!

Waiting patiently on our bed....

Woo Hoo!!! Now don't get me wrong here.....we didn't let the boys eat a whole

box of candy!! I just had them each hold a box for a photo opp!

Wait a minute....Andrew..."what are you digging for???""You're

supposed to be looking at the camera!!!"

Cheek to cheek with Grandpa and Seth while

Kirsten looks at the camera
