We had the honor of celebrating 50 years of
marriage with Dan, Rose, and the whole family this weekend. It was a
lovely party and a great weekend.
|
| |
|
 |
|
| It was a beautiful day as
we flew in to Kalispell
|
|
 |
 |
| Eric & Lucas at our barn |
Lucas went with us on a walk to the wheat field |
| |
|
 |
 |
| Beautiful, eh? (You have to talk like that when you are so close
to Canada!) |

The boys always love to gang up on the porch, it's a beautiful spot |
| |
|
 |
 |
Mark was freeing the wheat from the stalks - somehow
the word threshing doesn't seem right. Shucking wheat? Who
knows... |

|
|

We always call these a "seven boys picture" - we try to get one each
time they are all in one place.
What a bunch of handsome men. Who needs a full head of hair when you've
got so many other things going for you?!
|
| |
|
 |
 |
| I nabbed this great picture from Cami's Facebook of her and Mark |
Rose with the second-to-the-youngest granddaughter, Aubrey |

A very, very rare shot of Dillon actually smiling for a camera!
I got this from Rebecca's FB page, good job Becca! |

These are the last of the pictures I skimmed from
Facebook, but aren't they good ones?!

The boys in age order: Larry, Dan Jr, Eric, Mark, Jeb,

They each said a few words and all of them did a really great job.
|
There were as many as four pool cues going at once sometimes |
 |
| |
I HAD to capture this! J/K, I'm sure he does that all the time at home |
| |
|
Lucas is partied out! |

After the party we took a gang of relatives over to our house for the sunset

God does nice work, doesn't He?
