It was a surprise party!



Last night Andy, Mike, Beth and I drove to Zanesville and celebrated my niece, Nancy, and her husband, Danny's 50th wedding anniversary.  It was a big reception with over sixty people there to please them.  They were married at 19 and as she says, they grew up together in marriage. They had never had a reception and she said that no one had ever done anything like this for them in their lives.  So they were gobsmacked.  Her daughter and her partner, Carol, planned and executed the entire event at a country club in Zanesville.

We had so much fun seeing relatives and even Sarah, my high school classmate.  Our jaws were tired from laughing and reminiscing. When I was in high school I had many parties and sleep overs and Sarah was part of many of them.

Today here at Many Branches, Brooks and his girlfriend, Carley will be the center of attention as the family gathers for a cookout.  We will send them on their way in the morning but will enjoy their company for the day. Summers are so exciting, there is always something going on.  However, next week is free and we are looking forward to a bit of by-the-pool relax time. I keep looking out the windows at how good everything is looking outside.  We have this new group of guys taking care of the place and it looks spiffy.

Life is good...and certainly better than the alternative!

We are off to the doctor to have Andy checked out since he has had two falls.  We thought to wait until his appointment on the 20th, but aft...
