Visiting with family

We came back home yesterday and we brought the Bradster with us.....YEAH.....I LOVE that kid....he is the SWEETEST! We stopped in Garner and saw Minnie and her family which was really nice. We had not seen her since her dear husband, Larry passed in late May/early June. They were married for 57 years....had two boys Allen & Rickey.



I didn't really realize until yesterday that neither one of her boys didn't have children. Rickey's wife, Phyllis has two boys from a previous marriage.....Justin and Steven. Steven is getting ready to leave a job as a police officer in Statesville that he has been doing for several years as he just got a job at the corporate offices for Lowes Hardware in Wilkesboro. His wife just had a baby....I think her name is Katerine.....a real cutie pie.

We got to see Allen & Angela just briefly as they were working on a project at their house and couldn't make it up there until right when we were leaving.....they all live right next to each other which is so cool....it was the first time we had ever been to their house....very nice place. It was GREAT seeing them. We shared with them about our year with Matheus....I hate they didn't get to meet him....and then details about Thorben...they were excited for us. We need to make an effort to connect Thorben with our family this coming year!
