Family Get Together 8-22

It had been several years since we had planned a family get together and Dennis & I felt we need to keep this family together. Dennis brother Dewey had just passed away and he loved get togethers he rarely missed one. So in his honor we made up pictures of him with family and friends. He was here in spirit. It was wonderful seeing the family that could make it and we missed the ones that had other plans or live to far away to make it. Maybe the next time !!

Time For Good Memories

Friday Evening August 7th we lost Dennis(Butch's) brother Dewey to a lengthy illness. We have lots of memories of him. Dennis (Butch) & I would try to get to see him a lot of Fridays to his home or even Saturday evenings. Sometimes we would just sit and visit or watch a movie or we would go out for supper if he was up to it. We are going to miss those visits, once in awhile beer, and laughs we use to get from him as he always had a story to tell. This picture above is the last sibling weekend we had we all went to sister Sharon's for 4th July weekend 2006. We have all gotten together after but this picture was a good one we have of him and we enjoyed that weekend so much. Dewey will be missed a great deal. He was a brother in-law to me but I felt he treated me like a sister. Dewey will be missed a great deal. Love ya bro!!! Was the last words I said to him. Dennis & I always will. He will be missed.

Random Pictures Around The Yard This Summer

My life is not boring for me there is so much to be to be thankful for a beautiful yard and can share it with flowers and animals of all kinds. Here are some random shots I have taken through the summer.

We have deer quite often come into our yard and they like the apple tree and eat apples that has fallen really fun to watch.









Pepper follows me all around so I have to take pics of her

Busy summer

Been awhile since I have posted. We went to Good Guys in Columbus I am sure over 6000 cars were there. We did not by no means seen all of them in one day that we went. We had a great time. Smaller car shows in area and cruise in's have kept us busy. I hope I can post some pictures soon as we have not got them out of camera yet. With economy we still do not know how secure dennis job is. Not looking good for so many people.

Great 4th July Weekend

Was a really busy long holiday weekend. Dennis had off from Wednesday till Monday off. We were busy everyday. Thursday we worked a full day around here. Friday we had friends Nancy and Tom over for lunch which we never get to see them often enough. Saturday We went to 4th July Fly In Breakfast and seen planes coming and going at the Bryan airport.

Hilltop Class of 1969 40th Reunion

We had a great time with our fellow 69er's. We took a tour of the school. Took pictures, went to Bryan had a wonderful supper at Rita's Resturant.After supper went to Classsmate Bonnie and husband Mike's for social time. Time flew by so fast it was pretty late before we realized what time it happened to get. Have another in 5 years hopefully all stay healthy.

This is the High School Building Denny I attended our high school years.

Took picture to have the H showing before we all got around it.

Some of the classmates took a tour of the West Unity School before they plan on demolishing it as they are building a new school. Rest will meet us at the resturant.

After supper we took pictures across the street from Rita's Resturant. Would like to have done it at Gazebo but the Jubilee was going on and no way possible.

My Niece Joni & Jace In Ohio To Visit Family

It was so good seeing all the girls again. 5 month old Jace is such a good baby even when he was tired he just wanted to be put in his stroller to relax. He was handled a lot today to and I am sure he misses his Daddy who is in the service and he had to stay in Missouri. They leave Thursday from Grandma Cherie's in Indiana to go back home. Be awhile before we seem them again. But all our loves their for them only at a distant.
