It has been too long since I have shared anything. My heart was joyful last weekend as we had a guest for a few days. Dannae's boyfriend Zach visited from the Chicago area and we all enjoyed the visit immensely.
Friday night found us at a volleyball game in Wabash. Denise and Deborah played very well. This is only their second year of playing on an organized team and they have improved very much.
Saturday night we attended the wedding of Josh and Amy. They have been Danny's and David's friends for about 13 years. The wedding was held at the Rooftop Lounge of the Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne. The sky was somewhat cloudy as it sprinkled lightly on the outdoor location prior to the wedding. By the time the bride came down the aisle, the drops of water had stopped and the wedding proceeded as planned.
After the ceremony, the reception was held in the adjoining lounge. We partook of a tasty buffet and enjoyed karaoke sung by numerous friends, including Josh. Daniel and I danced to several slower songs, as did Danny and Heather and Zach and Dannae. It was a wonderful time to share in the lives of Josh and Amy and to be together as a family.
Sunday we attended the 80th birthday celebration for my Uncle Del in Fort Wayne. He was my Dad's only brother. Those attending were my Aunt Norma; cousin Karen and her husband Dave from Plymouth, Indiana; cousin Kay Ann and her husband Mike from Virginia; cousin Kathy from Fort Wayne; and several of Aunt Norma's family. It was a wonderful time to be together and celebrate a momentous occasion.
Afterward we came home and celebrated David's graduation from IPFW. Numerous parties, work, and various schedules made it difficult to have a party earlier in the summer. Nick and Ashley joined our family as Daniel cooked-out on the grill and we enjoyed some home-cooked food.
A very busy weekend was enjoyed by all.
