Random from the past 3 Weeks

We have been in many directions the past few weeks.  Mostly in the wedding preparation direction.
One of Erin's dress fittings.

Grandma hemming Erin's dress.

While in Portland I visited with a friend, Kelly, who I had met in Switzerland.  She introduced me to her friend, Alter Wiener, a Holocaust Survivor from Poland.

We enjoyed many meals at the Roths.  

Getting ready the morning of Erik and Ashley's wedding, we thought Mark might look cute in one of the girls' skirts.  And we were right!!!  So cute!!!

Erik and Nate, ready for the big day!!

Nate and his cousin, Alyssa at the luncheon after the wedding.

After the shower, we went to Larry Brady's Celebration of Life.  Dan visited with cousins he hadn't seen for almost 30 years while the kids renewed friendships with second cousins from when we lived in Portland.

On our drive home to Utah we made a quick stop for dinner and visiting in Heyburn, Idaho.  Me with Uncle Vearl.

Erin with Aunt Saundra

While the boys went off driving.

Then back to Oregon to get ready for the next one.  Rachel and Cindy preparing the cake layers.

Prepping for the reception the day before Erin's wedding.  The one on the right is how we really felt.
