We drove to Bothell on Thursday and enjoyed the evening with our West side kids. Laura made a crockpot of chili and some cornbread for us to enjoy together.

On Friday we drove across the border to Abbotsford B.C. to celebrate the 50th Wedding Anniversary of one of the Mennonite Girls. Some of us ‘girls’ joined Lovella at her home. She volunteered to bring finger sandwiches for the open house and we helped her fill them. We transferred all the sandwiches to the party and added them to the dessert spread that Anneliese had prepared.

It was a great celebration of H & Anneliese’s 50th wedding Anniversary.

On Saturday we drove back to Bothell bright and early.

We spent another evening with our kids and enjoyed a meal out.

Early Sunday morning we left for home and were happy to get over the mountain pass and finally see some sunshine through the rain.

Things got brighter and windier the farther we traveled east towards Spokane.

We made it home safely and are thankful for all the good catch-ups we had with our Washington family and with our friends in Canada. Our Border crossings were good both ways.

I’m behind on visiting you, my bloggy friends. Thanks for all your comments on my recent posts! I’ll be catching up little by little…
