September 8–16, 2014 (Part 1) Our Time with Family

We have had a wonderful time here with our family, getting together, getting caught up, laughing, talking, eating and having fun.

Here is our site – thank you so much Sandy and Mike:

Maddy was one on September 12th and our grandchildren, Rick and Chelsea had a nice party for her.  Here is Maddy with her cake and her big sister, Bailey.  The last time we were here was at Bailey’s first birthday – time does fly:

On Sunday, 14th, we had a nice early Thanksgiving dinner.  Andy did the turkey over the fire and it was YUMMY!:

As the turkey was cooking, everyone was watching the game and visiting.  I love this picture of Andy with his grandson, Rick, just talking:

There are a lot of place to see and do when you are RVing, but nothing as good as visiting family.
