The view from here...

Kevin's parents came for a week long (I really mean "short") visit. Was great to see them again. Below are a few snaps from their visit.


Ray, Kevin's dad is always camera shy ;o)
On Sunday, Kevin's parents and sister Suzy and brother-in-law Gene came over for dinner (which is noon meal for those of us who grew up in the farming culture). Then the dinner conversation turned to how Kevin and I can add a new kitchen onto our house. A 1964 galley kitchen with the original harvest gold Amana appliances leaves much to be desired. (anyone out there looking for retro appliances?)





Creative minds are hard at work here....



SATURDAY:

After our visit to Suzy's and Gene's, we went to a couple of home improvement stores. Between those visits, we went to Sertino's for some frozen yogurt and ice cream. I love their frozen strawberry yogurt in a waffle cone. See the waffle cone sign in the background that Kevin designed and made? The store owner says ice cream sales have increased 20% since that sign went up! We're delighted for the owner, who is a friend of ours.



Leaving with the goods in hand. Yummy!





Of course, there's the game of Dominoes to be had. Kevin is down to 2 here.




Ray and Marlene setting up. No cheaters in this game (Jesse and Julie!)
We were sad to see Ray's and Marlene's visit come to an end. But we enjoyed spending time with family again.
