MAMA K's BIG DAY!

John and I certainly had a weekend jam-packed with activity and TONS of food. It started at 6 p.m. on Friday with A graduation open house for Brittany Wright. We were served fried chicken, mostacolli, salad...and my personal favorite....CAKE! Woo Hoo! We had a very nice time visiting with friends while honoring Brittany on her accomplishments.

On Saturday, John and I traveled out to Armada to Kristopher and Melissa's home to join the rest of the Kilpatrick/Aune clan in celebration of Mama K's 90th birthday. All of the children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, as well as several relatives from Alabama and Georgia came together for a great day of fun, food, presents and, of course, CAKE!!!! The weather was GREAT...and the kids (big AND little) were able to enjoy being outdoors and were able to go swimming in the pond. Mama K was, most certainly, "QUEEN FOR A DAY"...and she thoroughly enjoyed EVERY MINUTE of it!

We went to church Sunday morning and the weekend was topped off by joining Sandy, Jimmy and the Georgia/Alabama group for the weekly concert at the beach. Once again, the weather fully cooperated and it was a great way to cap off a perfect weekend with friends. We are truly blessed! I hope your weekend was as good as ours. Enjoy the pictures!

SUMMER FUN!

Welcome back! Thanks for "stopping by"! Things have been quite busy lately. Since June, we have celebrated Father's Day (as you know), 5 birthdays (Mom, Karen Greg, Shelley, & Cathy), went to a wedding, as well as trying to keep up with the everyday things that need to be done. We also spent one weekend in Port Austin at Terry's trailer. With all the activiy and lack of really HOT summer weather, it it hard to believe that Summer is half over!

Last night John & I, along with my brother, Greg, and sister-in-law, Cyndi, went to a Martina McBride concert at DTE Energy Theater. The weather was PERFECT and the concert was great! We ate popcorn and french fries and frozen lemonade and "dippin dots"....mmmm...mmmm...good! lol We had bought the tickets for my brother's birthday several months ago and, needless to say, it was money well spent. We all had an awesome time!

On a more serious note...my mom is currently in the hospital and is scheduled for a pretty serious back operation. There was some sort of abnormality with her pacemaker on Thursday, so now the doctors are all conferring to try and figure out what the problem is. If all goes well, she will have surgery next week sometime. Of course, we are all very concerned, so any and all prayers would be appreciated!
Hope you all have a wonderful week and are able to enjoy the summer weather!
