A Good Day

Yesterday was what my mom keeps referring to as "a good day" and I believe she's completely right with that. So, to keep things simple, that's what I've entitled this post.


While a few of us were cooking there were much more serious things getting done ... like throwing apple skins at the chickens! That's exactly what my cousin Corinne's son, little B, is up to in this photo. My Uncle Dick's whole family came over and we all made dinner together. It was wonderful! Little B skinned apples (for apple sauce) and some potatoes and then got to take the scraps out for the chickens. This was also after we fed them some very yummy watermelon - no exactly in season, but the chickens love it and so little B loved giving it to them. The day continued on with good food, good company and fun beers to try thanks to my cousin Gretchen's fiance, Ray. Below are a collection of photos from the night...

Mom's Uncle John (my great-uncle), dad's brother Uncle Dick and Dad at the table ... ok, I caught them mid-passing food, but it's a GREAT photo!

It truly was a wonderful, wonderful time filled with wonderful memories - a good day...
