It's been two years since our sons and their families and Tom and I have been together at the same time. Chris and Kim opened up their beautiful new home for our reunion!
It's as if we have never been apart, the grandchildren are instant playmates and loved seeing their cousins. Everyone had toys that scattered everywhere and everyone shared! The only shy one was Monty, the cat who climbed to a high window ledge.
Now this is pure joy! A night time story with the grandchildren, priceless!
The big event was a pumpkin land in the countryside of west Chicago, somewhere. Everyone enjoyed rides, pig races, tractors, mazes, cotton candy, train rides, junk food, and even what Angie called a "corn box." So here we go...
First stop - getting an all family photo and all grandchildren photo. That "cheese" thing we do for smiley photos looks painful!
Now lets try out some rides...
and slides....
So what would a farm be without at least a tractor? Hudson who always likes to figure out how things work is interested...
Natalie walked, walked, walked and the pumpkin field drew her in like a magnet.
Such a surprise that corn could be so much fun:
It's come to this, Tom and I ride the rocking chair!
What a wonderful time we had together, but it's so true for those times we look forward to for weeks, they seem to fly by in moments. This is life, love and family. We are so blessed.

It is fleeting but the memories are always replaying in our minds. When I see families all together, it is a glimmpse of what fun we will have in heaven.
Thanks for putting the blog together. I love seeing all of your grandchildren and parents and grandparents.
It was great that we could all meet up again. I know the kiddos all enjoyed being otgether. As for me, the corn box was awesome! I think I still have some corn in my pockets:-)
