Fun with Family & Friends

We had such a great time visiting with all our family and friends. I'm glad we planned for such a long visit. We were almost able to see everyone. Some highlights include a girls night out, dinner with the McAuliffes, barbecuing at the Knights, poker (Doug did not win big), a trip to the Oregon Zoo (pictures to be posted), dinner and drinks at Kells, golf for Doug and shopping for Kelly.

Annemarie and Tutu

Grandma taking the boys for a tractor ride. One of the boys' favorite activities was "helping" Grandma feed the animals.

All the Peppmeier grandchildren (Will, Matt, Caleb, Annemarie & Jack). Annemarie is definitely outnumbered, thank goodness she's a big hit with her cousins and brothers.

Swimming and playing at the Knight's barbecue (Gilbert, Will & Jack). The Spray & Slide was a HUGE hit. I think we may need to get one for next summer.

Uncle Jason, Annemarie and Aunt Sara in their beautiful backyard. Sara and Jason continue to take on big projects and make their home even more beautiful. It was fun to see Penny and Marcus (the dogs) and see all improvements they've made since the last time we were there.

Knight and Peppmeier families after Annemarie's baptism (Will, Evelynne, Jack, Gilbert, Nathan, Dianne, Kelly, Annemarie & Doug). It's hard to believe less than five years ago neither of us had children. Things sure have changed!
