Well we had a wonderful weekend. It has been extra special to see all but one of the Wilhelm siblings and families, including Jeff's cousin and Aunt and Uncle. Sister Kathy is ready to have baby number 3 in Texas. It won't be long now. We missed her and her family. Matthew and his cousin Logan always have so much fun together. All of the teen girls, Sarah, Lori, Julia and Mary were reunited after 4 years. My mom and brothers and families came over, along with many friends to celebrate Jeff's parents 50th Anniversary. The party was a success. We had a slide show, music, food and cake of course. family introductions, speeches and a song sung be Uncle Bill and Aunt Bobbie.
After pitching in to clean up the hall, we went to Ernie and Marlene's for dinner and opening presents. At 7:30 pm nearly 40 people went bowling together.. It was sooo much fun. Sarah had a lifetime high game of 155, she beat her dad! Jeff's brother Tom had the night's high game of 193. Matt and cousins Logan and Eric bowled 5 games in 2 hours. No matter the score, everyone had a really fun time. Lots of cheering, laughing and picture taking. We hope to post some soon after we get home.
Today we went swimming first thing this morning, got ready for church and had McDonald's breakfast. We attended church at Woodlands Lutheran with Mom and Dad and all of the family. We had lunch at Buffalo's Southwest Cafe. I liked it a lot. I had a delicious burger. When the troops got home we all went to the swimming pool and most swam others enjoyed talking poolside or playing billards indoors. The afternoon storms rolled in and we headed back home for more family time. Some played games, some watched a James Bond movie. One thing is for sure. It was hard to say goodbye to everyone after having such a nice weekend. We all agree it would be fun to get together more often.
Tomorrow, really later today, we head back to Mom Heumann's house for one more day and leave Tuesday morning on our trip back. I hope we stop at our favorite Mexican restaurant in Atlanta on the way home. I guess I should get this posted. Have a great one wherever you are!
