I know it has been forever since I have posted anything...
I realized that I have not shared anything about my trip to Utah (in August) and Kjarom and Liz's wedding.
Opa and Oma went on a trip to Alaska and needed some help covering the club. Oma has not been away from that club longer than two days at a time for the past 25 years. So Opa thought is was time to get her away. Knowing Oma would not leave unless the club was covered, Opa asked if I would go out and help. Between Kayla, Jeannine, and myself we ran the club. No one quit and club didn't burn down, so I think we did just fine.
The second week there Kjarom and Liz got married. The night before the wedding the "family" dinner was at Oma and Opa's house. To get ready for the crowd Opa had this brainy idea that he needed to enlarge his deck, so this is what he did:
It was a lot of work, but it really did turn out beautiful.
For one thing, there is less lawn to mow!
Sorry this picture is sideways, but I'm having trouble with my
iphoto. I made matching aprons for Oma and myself since we
were the primary cooks for the dinner. I embroidered "Wedding
Chef" on her pockets and "Sous Chef" on mine. Kind of cute!
We wanted Kayleen in the picture with us.
