family get togethers

7.23.16

We met the Fullmer's at a park Saturday morning,

everyone was able to make it so it was fun to visit. 

The kiddos played soccer, kick ball and ran through 

the splash pad. We had lunch and Bart made yummy

homemade toasted coconut ice cream and fresh raspberry!!

The Winters party was up at Susan and Robert's and we

had a good turn out. It's always fun to visit with everyone

and see how big the kids are getting! We recently just found 

out that Julie has breast cancer and it's stage 3. She is going to

start chemo, it has not spread which is a blessing. She looked

really good and seems to be in good spirits, probably 

stronger than any one of us! She will kick this cancer in the butt!!!

Grandma and Larry were there for a little bit,

she didn't recognize anyone but she seemed to be enjoying 

herself. I walked her out to the car and asked if she had a 

nice time and she said yes. I said, well your family loves

you very much. She just smiled and said something along 

the lines of it was so nice that everyone was able 

to get together!! Alzheimers is a sad disease, watching 

2 grandparents go through this is not a fun.
