Sunday was quite a special day as we were gathering with more family. We took a little two-hour road trip to see hubby’s sister Cindy and family. Little did we know a feast was in the works. Ham, pot roast (with potatoes, carrots & gravy), pea salad, salad, homemade rolls, broccoli casserole, green bean casserole, hash brown casserole…Hmmmm, what did I miss? It was all so delicious and prepared by our nephews.
We also celebrated our great-nephew Ben’s birthday.
We had cake and homemade banana ice cream…So yummy!
And played on the front porch with Ben’s new “Fire Truck”.
It took no time to figure out the duties of a fire chief.
His hose could reach nearly 15 or so feet. There was lots of fun, especially since the adults were playing along.
Big sister quickly caught on…
At times there was a driver and two willing Chiefs.
Love that Sam posed side-saddle on this old tricycle my hubby and his siblings used to ride.
Precious Connie – She was my little buddy…
Big sister was willing to pose for pix…
I had to get a shot of her pretty boots.
Connie always had a smile when I pointed the camera her way.
It was such a joy to cuddle with Ben.
Three of our great-nieces and nephews. We got to see our other great-nephew last week.
Hubby’s sister with her two sons and families.
While the children played into the night, the adults rustled up a fun game of Texas Holdem’ Poker. By the end of the night, Brad ran away with all the chips. Good Game!
A visit to Cracker Barrel before heading back to St Louis yesterday.
Great-aunt Debbie can’t take too many pix…
Little Ben fell fast asleep before our meal arrived and slept all through his breakfast. Hubby took good care of him.
We have more family to see before we make our way back home. I’ll be back with more pix later.
Blessings – Debbie
