Sunday Sept. 7th at Hershey Thousand Trails

We were up early and excited to get to Hershey. Arrived at the gate at 8 a.m. Went right to Dawn and Carlton's and dropped off our pies before heading to the Pickleball Courts.

Peaches!!!! Lots of Peaches!!!!

A few days ago, Steve brought me a 2ft X 2ft. box of peaches. One of his co-workers asked if anyone could help her out and take some home.....Steve KNOWS that we'll use most any free food. I've been working on this box of peaches since he brought them and FINALLY today ...with Hanna's rain...I spent the day baking peach tarts and cleaning up the end of the peaches. Now, some of you know that Keith can't TOUCH the skin of peaches...he breaks out in a red rash where ever it touches him. But, he LOVES peaches. So, IF I'll clean them....he'll eat them:) I made 4 peach tarts from my mom's recipe, but at the request of Keith, I added vanilla to that recipe...They are GOOOOOOD.mmmmm I have 2 large containers in the refrig.all ready to eat with ice cream or on cereal. Not bad for a rainy day.

The FROG and HAT Outfit :)

This is how HAPPY this boy is at 6:45 a.m....Di dresses him in the most adorable outfits and I'm having a ball with my new camera. He's such a good "model" for me too. When Steve and Brad were little - the "boy" clothes wasn't like it is today. Just walk into BabiesRUs and you'll see what I mean....anything you can imagine is made for kids to wear. I wonder what he'll be wearing on Monday? Ha.

90 Degrees - Time for a Swim

From Labor Day til now it's been very hot and humid in the afternoons.. I thought I'd be fun to put John in his swim trunks and have some fun in the water. This was the first day we played ....the second day he enjoyed it even more! After Hanna goes thru today.. the weather is to be in the upper 80's again so we'll see if we get to play some more.

The 2 Great Grandsons

Clancy is 1 1/2 years old...looks like 3!!! He is Mindy's grandson..Holly and Clancy are his Mommy and Daddy. With both sides of Clancy's family being TALL..Holly's Dad is 6ft.6inches.. Well....you get the idea! He's got the most beautiful blue eyes.
John was all decked out in his RED,WHITE,&BLUE as was his Mommy and Daddy. I think I just have to frame this shot.

Before the Cook Out.

O.K...here's the "before" the cook out! Keith and I worked all day Sunday to get the car-port clean and neat for Labor Day. It looked so nice. We used the RV matting we got from "Beasley's" in Florida on the black top. There was a nice breeze flowing thru the eating area all day..and no one had to be roasting in the sun. This "getting ready" reminds me of our catering days! My job was to get everything ready and make sure things ran smoothly.

Labor Day Cook Out for Mom and Dad

Hot dogs, Hamb. and Corn on the Cob..mmmm everything was so good. It was a beautiful day and everyone had a great time. The 2 great grandsons were there and that made Mom and Dad's day. I tried to publish another photo but don't know what happened to it.. I'll try again. Hey, this blog thing is tricky sometimes!
Jimmy, Michele's oldest son, was called at 5 a.m. to head out for Mississippi because of Gustov. Jim is a linesman for a Co. out of Lancaster Pa. My brother and wife were on vacation in N.C.
