Memorial Day

 Time to relax!! Yesterday's get together was great even though the weather didn't cooperate and we had to switch places!! 

This was our first time with all of the family since the pandemic started! All of us vaccinated! Even the youngest... my almost 15 year old grandson!!

We tried new recipes... and munched away!!

Suggestions made for the "Fourth of July - Independence Day"!

We decided to figure out who in our families served when....after all it was Memorial Day (LOL)  Bob's Father's brother was a pilot during WWII and flew "the hump". Two of his Mother's brothers served in the Army during WWII and ended up in Italy. ( The other brother was in an essential occupation and could not serve) . My step-Father could not serve in WWII since he was a farmer and considered essential. My step-brother served in the Vietnam War.  My Father served in the German Army at Verdun in WWI and Poland WWII - we couldn't decide how he fit in...  Luckily everyone made it home...

Kitten update...they are all doing well and are beginning to open their eyes. A search is on for new homes in about 8 weeks. Lili and her boyfriend Spencer seem to having some positive feedback!
