Who knew Brett could juggle?



For anyone with dial up, I apologize for the video. It may not be worth it to you to wait for it to download, but I hope it turns out for our kids to see, at least. This is our nephew, Brett, who is juggling. His wife, Heather, is in the picture holding their son, Logan. Brett was the youngest of the cousins in our kids' generation. The big kids used to give Brett candy, so he'd get sticky all over and then they'd run from him to keep him from getting them sticky. They all thought that was the most fun: to run from 'Sticky Fingers.' Of course he laughed that all the big kids ran from him. It's always been a great memory to all of us from the good old days at Grandma's house. I look forward to the day that Brett can bring Heather and their boys to our house, that used to be Grandma's house and we can relive some of the old memories. In the meantime it's sure fun to get to spend time with them in Houston. Who knew that 'Sticky Fingers' could juggle? (Trish and Gretta, do you think that Logan looks like Brett did?) We thank God for precious memories of times past and current ones, too!

We made it to Don's reunion this afternoon, and it's been fun, fun, fun. We enjoy crashing this reunions every 2 years. This is a reunion of those who graduated from Hobart in the 50's. Don went to school with them in Hobart through the 4th grade, so he remembers lots of them. A few of them still live in Hobart, but most come here from elsewhere to get together every 2 years. We appreciate their encouraging us to join them.

Don will go home Sunday, but I'm staying to see Trish through her tonsillectomy. She'll do fine, but it's a good excuse for me to spend some time with her kids and give her some time to rest and recuperate.

  1. Does Don take "the fork" to his own reunions?

  2. Don takes "the fork" everywhere he remembers to take it! He had fun with it at their banquet tonight. It's a great ice breaker!
