Ol' Settlers Reunion {2014}

 

 

I just love our silly little family traditions that involve Stanton.

It is a great way for the littles to learn about their Daddy, his family and his childhood.

 

 

 

 

Always LOVE when Ethan gets to spend the night. LOVE this boy. He is such a sweetheart!

 

 

This is the way we roll...lol... This RV is hardly used for travel, but makes a great in town vehicle:)

We keep going back and fourth about selling it...

 

 

The best part about Ol' Soreheads Reunion is we get to see Nancy and Gary.. aka Nana and Big Daddy. They always make a trip back to attend.When Lils saw her Nana she was so excited and broke out in a full run right into her arms.

 

 

This girl LOVES Big Daddy!!! She did not leave his side almost the whole time we were at the parade.

The parade is always short and sweet.. we were actually saying how sad it is that it seems to be getting smaller every year and less people are attending. Makes me sad that someday this might not be happening any more.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The kids had the blast grabbing all the candy they throw at us.. and there was ALOT!

 Poor Coltie has the most sensitive ears

Lilly' bio-logical great grandmother and brother and sister were there always. It was fun catching up with Carolyn and seeing Jack and Serinity. It is crazy home much Serinity favors Lilly. It does not show much in these pictures.. but take it from me..They have the same silly smile, cute nose just to name a few. I am so happy Lilly has a chance to know them!!

As much fun as we had.. We really missed Brenna. This was the first time in 14 years that Jeff did not share this day with Brenna. Not having her for summer is just killing us. It seems to be dark shadow over our family in everything we do where she is unable to be a part of it. Can hardly wait for the next little bit of time we are allowed with her
