I think over the past few years Jeff has spent an equal amount of time working on Bill and Julia's yard as he has ours. On the 6th of this month he helped Bill put in a water feature in their backyard. Now I want one.
The beginnings of our harvest. We get about 6 cups of raspberries every two days.
Still loves her kitty she got from Christmas.
Caught Cooper doing something nice for his sisters.
On National Doughnut day (the 5th) we kidnapped our neighbor, Joshua and went out to dinner and to Krispy Kreme for a free doughnut.
My dad sold his motorcycle and got a new (to him) bike. So, of course, the kids all had to take a turn sitting on it.
On the 20th we threw a 25th wedding anniversary for my dad and step-mom. My sister, DeAnne and sister-in-law, Michelle came up with the design, did all the decorations, and pretty much everything else. A few of us helped with the dessert bar, but the credit is owed to them. The few days that lead up to the party were busy and lacking in sleep. The day of, we spent at least 10 hours at the church setting up, having the party, and taking it all down. Wow! What a job. Glad we did it. Glad it is over for another 25 years!
We had them play the newlywed game.
Another thing we did for the party was put together a song with pictures that showcased my dad and step-mom's life together. Michelle came up with the lyrics (to the song "64" by the Beetles, Jared sang it while Jeff recorded it, and Jeff put pictures to the music that everyone provided him of the grand kids.
