Happenings

Last Wednesday, we enjoyed meeting the entire Adams Family who were passing through and stopped by on their way to Sacramento.

The night they arrived, we had a fun evening of singing and games with a few Werzinski's, and David Rutz, who was also in the area.

The next morning held more music-making. Jacob joined in on the mandolin. ;-)


Three violin's, one cello, two guitars, and one mandolin completed the ensemble.

Meanwhile, a lively conversation was taking place in the dining room.

How about it Jeremy?

The girls enjoyed playing with Isabelle so much! She was sweet to join in their play and games that morning while the 'olders' were playing music and the adults visiting.

Friday morning, Simon, Lilly, Mom and I drove down to Simi Valley. There we attended a funeral for Uncle Jung's father, who had passed away due to an infection he developed after his kidney transplant. It was a special trip - and we were able to spend time with many close and extended family members.

Just before we pulled away . . .

Lilly was so excited to have these girls all to herself. :-)

All grins.
Jaelynn and Uncle Simon sharing a special moment.

Mother/daughter. :-)

Emmy has grown so much!

Eliot and Elianna, Uncle Jung and Aunt Lisa's children, also my 'Texas' cousins.


This morning, these three soldiers left to fight off the Yankees who had invaded Mooney Grove park in Visalia. :-) They had a great time and came back riddled with grapeshot, big smiles, and a whiff of campfire smoke lingering about them. It was a great day!

Wonderful photos, Sally. Your family is very precious -- all of you (and so glad to see a photo of YOU in there :-) with your sweet collection of girlies around you). And what a lovely "mother/daughter" shot of Kendra and your mom. Just beautiful. (Glad you captured a quick "men off to battle" photo, too :-)
Looking forward to the conference with all of you!
