June 5, 2011 Debby and Phil celebrated 40 years of marriage
June 17, 2011 we surprised them with a family party
Surprise!
Mom could not stop laughing at Mardi . . .
who was wearing her bridesmaid dress from 40 years before!
we celebrated with barbeque, watermelon, and cake and counted the many blessings of the past 40 years.

Our family of five actually drove in a few days before the party. We had our first experience with driving at night-we left when Keri got off work at 11pm and arrived at my parents around 3am. It was so fun for the kids to wake up and play right away!
The littlest kids enjoyed a leisurely breakfast while checking each other out.
Addie and Ellery picked up right where they left off at Christmas
Doak and Kiran built some cars and played so well together
I love seeing our kids with their cousins!
Keri and Olivia had some early morning bonding time. Olivia is very serious and observes for a while before smiling or being playful. But Keri got her smiling right away!
Livvy loves babies and she was so sweet to Brock.
Our days together brought lots of reading time, as usual.
Jeff and his girls (girl #3 is due in August) He's such a great dad!
We had a cake and gifts for the two June birthday girls
more reading time, this time with Uncle Jeffy
It was over 100 every day so the kids kept cool by playing in the backyard pool.

We took advantage of having most of the family together by having Reyna come take some family pictures.
