Reunion Weekend!

Well, I guess I'm officially old now. I had my 10th year high school reunion this weekend! Most of the time it really doesn't seem like it's been 10 years, but when I realize that I've been married for 7.....Oh well! We had a good time just hanging out, talking, and eating pizza. Hopefully we won't wait another 10 years for one! About half the class made it. We graduated with 18. 13 of us went to school together from Kindergarten all the way through our senior year!



Ashley, me, Tyson, Jason, and Jamey. I forgot to get a group picture before Cory and Derrick left! :(


There were 6 little ones there, too. They got along really well and had a lot of fun playing together! The boys (Jacob isn't in this one) played with all the trucks and tractors! Anna and Kylee were the only girls. Anna colored for quite a while, then had fun running in circles with Braden and Jacob!
She is adorable!


All that running wiped her out!



Him, too!
-------------------------------------------------------
For supper that evening, we went out to Larry & Brenda's (my uncle's brother so not technically related, but basically!) They live out in the country and their grankids were there as well. They had so much fun playing together!

Oh boy...DIRT!



I don't know what the girls were playing, but they played for a long time! Kaylee, Anna and Reagan had a lot of fun together.



Jacob pretty much just enjoyed wandering around playing in the dirt!



He joined the girls for a bit.


Then they had fun swinging and trying to do flips!
(Anna, Kaylee, Logan (a friend's boy), Jacob)



Here Luke, let me show you how it's done!



We got home late this afternoon and everyone was TIRED! Anna let Jacob lay in her lap and watch a movie while she played with his hair. What a sister!! :)
So now I'm going to go to bed! Before 10pm...it's a miracle (well, I'm not there yet)! One more week and then Daddy has to start traveling. :(

I Love This Place

The Country School


It takes me back a century

Simpler days
When it was expected for the teacher to open the day in prayer
And having a school verse
Proverbs 22:6 is this one's


It's surrounded by reminders of God's great creation



*even if some of them are fake*



Even a grape vine growing around an archway




Gorgeous flowers everywhere





It wouldn't be Kansas without sunflowers
********************
It makes me want to stay out there all day
But life beckons and I return to the "city"
One of these days............
