Labour Day Weekend






The Labour Day long weekend was a very busy one for our family. This year my mom & dad will celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary on October 11th. We surprised them with an early anniversary present by gathering our family together. Jay, Liz & Cheyenne flew in from Kansas on Friday afternoon and Kirby and Dan drove down from Edmonton Friday night. Mom & dad didn't know any of my family were coming. Saturday morning we all drove out to their farm and gave them quite a surprise. We spent the day with them and my brother & sister-in-law Dale & Shari and their family Brody, Colton & Jennifer. Sunday a few friends and family came out to the farm to help with the celebration. I think everyone had a great time. Louis kept saying that this was the best thing we could have ever done. The last time our family was all together was about 10 years ago. Great weekend but unfortunately it had to end. After quite a few tears everyone left on Monday morning.

We had lots of fun even with the cold weather. When we got home it was 80 degrees
