We had to leave today for home...sad time, we won't see our children and grand-children for quite awhile...but we had a blast!!!  We flew into Burbank airport, and Tip & Patti picked us up and took us to Santa Barbara, where we met Roger & Janice, we had dinner together on the pier, and then Roger & Janice brought us home...Thank you so much for taking the time in picking us up and then bringing us home...it was good to get home, where it cools off in the evening...it was a very good time!!!

We had a very busy 5 days, but worth every minute...we enjoyed our visit with our children and grandchildren, we did stay at night 2 doors down from the kids, at Gilbert and Connie Stogsdill...we are so thankful for them, they made us feel right at home...and we are so THANKFUL for our children and grand-children, and for the Love they have for the Lord...it did our hearts good to be with them...We Love them so much, and miss them already.

After dinner we went out back and played in the water for awhile, it was alot of fun, the boys are not afraid of water in their face...it was fun to watch them run back and forth.
 Then Shawn played hide-and-seek with the boys, Logan would get so excited...Conner wanted to play "noisy" hide-and-seek...they would make noises so the other one would find them...

Shawn hid in the boys laundry cupboard and barely made it, he couldn't quite get his feet in...the boys thought it was funny.

 We had a very good visit with my Uncle, Aunt, cousin and his wife, who I haven't seen in 30 some years...we had a good time talking about all the fun times we had...I had kind of forgot, but Craig, my cousin reminded me that he was saved in my brother's tent (Dennis) at a camp-out at Lyon's creek...he use to go with us to camp-out for many years...it was so good to re-connect after all these years.


 Came home from visiting with my relatives, to a very delicious BBQ tri-tip & sausage, corn on the cob, and salad dinner...Shawn does a really good job on BBQing...the boys were hilarious to watch eat their corn, Logan went from one cob to another cleaning off the part that we didn't eat...

We went to town...did some grocery shopping and had lunch...DaraLynn is only 10 days old and she did so good, and April is an amazing daughter-in-law...nothing keeps her down. Love her so much! The boys do really well with DaraLynn, they love her to pieces. Went to sing that night.
