The occasion that got us together was mama and daddy's mission call to Santiago, Chile. The last time we were all together was after our return from Somalia. Lynette thought it would be really funny to recreate our happy group of misfits. I am so thankful that we all made the effort and priority to make this trip. Four families came from quite a distance so this was no small feat. Don't know that we will ever have this opportunity again with so many lives and circumstances involved, even the grandkids are becoming adults now. It was sure nice to get to know some a little better and renew and strenghten some relationship already established.

these pix are great! I sit here in the apartment at the other end of the hemisphere and tear up. I really enjoyed the reunion and seeing how great a family we really are. I look at each one and think what a great person you are. I love each one of you so much. Thanks for putting up the pix so I can stroll again through that two weeks.
Have you noticed in the "Big kids, little kids" picture how you little kids are TOUCHING each other, heck, you're all hanging on each other, and us big kids look like we don't really know what to do? Of the big kids, Lori looks like she is having the most fun in that pic.
we do come as a pkg. deal! :)
