December 2008 – Alexis Receives An Award

Monday, January 12th, 2009

Alexis was one of 15 kids in her school that received an award, I think for the first half of the school year. The award was for “STRONG CHARACTOR”. Anyway the pictures tell the story. From the pictures you can tell she is one of many many kids in her school and was in front of a lot of kids. Marie attended but I wasn’t able to make it.

October 2008 – Matthews 13th Birthday

Friday, October 24th, 2008

Still haven’t got all the pictures I need for Marie’s Trip to Ireland but will have them shortly.

This is Matthews 13th birthday party (party on Sunday October 19th – Birthday is October 20th). The crowd was not as large as normal for birthdays as Laura and family were in Texas on Spring break. But it was a spirited party at Matt’s and Kim’s place.

I have to be truthful about one of the pictures displayed in the BLOG entry covering our birthdays. As usual I have no pictures of myself and I at least wanted to show I did have a birthday and was in attendance.

So what did I do when it came time to get a picture in the BLOG? Well, it was the following day so I just got out the cake and candles, set down at the table (behind the cake) and took the picture with the remote delay feature on the camera. Needless to say something went wrong. The cake was partly eaten and there was a problem with the candles. The first picture below will show the initial picture. The second picture shows what resulted after some software changes to the first picture.

Now you know the whole story.

Nothing seemed to work out where we could really celebrate the twins birthday and Bud’s birthday on July 16 or July 28. The 16th was on Wednesday, mid week and Matt and Laura and families were to be in Colorado on vacation starting July 26st. So, we had one party on July 20 to celebrate all the birthdays.

The Langley’s had their normal fish fry and fire works at their place northwest of Skiatook. Steve’s brother Glenn and his wife Debbie, his parents Arlene and Pete, and his sister Margaret and younger son Peter from the Dallas area, along with Marie and I, Matt and Kim and their kids Kassidy, Matthew, Katlyn and Alexis were there.

Wii games were played by the kids, some of the adults had a poker game prior to supper being prepared by Steve and Laura. Lots of fried fish and potatoes were available along Home Made Ice Cream made from the Loveless home made ice cream receipt.

Below are some of the pictures I took at the get together. Sorry I didn’t get a picture of Kim.

Taylor Reunion 2008 Bill & Evelyn and Family Evelyn, Patty, Marie, Aunt Wilma and Paul

The year will still be without Dick and Shirley, as Dick is still not up to the trip to Oklahoma. Tom and his family were in Missouri as Mary’s baby had to be taken early (six months into pregnancy). But we did have Aunt Wilma Ford from Kansas and her daughter Patty Ford from Kentucky did attend.

There aren’t as many pictures this year. Why? Kyle had to work and he always has 250 plus pictures. Even I had less this year and I’ve yet to get any pictures from Laura or Marie. I’ll start with a few group pictures of those who attended. But even these are in three pictures not in one mass picture that we try to take each year. But these three pictures do show the 40 people attending this years reunion. This was another wet year as we had rain early Saturday morning and all afternoon which played havoc with the group picture and outdoor activities.
