Fun at the Fallows

September 20, 2008



Ray and Jennae hosted a family party at their home in Kaysville and as always they were exceptional hosts. Kandice and Tim, Jackson and Tyler were here from Maryland which meant we had to party! We were all excited to meet Tyler, what a cutie! Most of the Nelson family was there and it was great to spend time together.



The cousins had a great time laughing and talking and catching up on what's been happening. Zion is growing as we now have 3 new babies coming into the Nelson family. YEH!





One thing about the Nelson family....we love to eat! We never get together without a good meal. Lots of conversation and laughter.

State Fair

Friday, Sept 12

Richard and Dennis had to work the fish pond (real live fish) for the DWR so they invited their wives to spend the day with them at the State Fair. We had a great time, we always do, we just don't spend enough time with our best friends. We strolled around the fair for a couple of hours before the guys had to man their pond. Maridee and I then spent more time wandering around and enjoying the sights. I haven't been to the State Fair for lots of years, probably since Ryan's bug collection was in the 4-H display! Maridee had never been so it was great.










Teona Ann joined us after she got off work. Yeh! We did some "fair" shopping, there are always bags to look at! After the guys were through with their fish pond we treated ourselves to some traditional fair food. Teona Ann introduced us to "funnel cake"!! Yummy! We had a great time, but we are getting to old to stay in the city until 9:00 pm and then drive home.

Labor Day Weekend in Logan

We traveled to Logan for the weekend and enjoyed lots of good times, as always, with the family. Richard, Teona Ann, Grandpa and I "helped" Lynn and Laurie in their yard on Friday. It was great....especially the Diet Coke break!

Grandpa is a great host!! We hung out at his house most of the time (we did do some shopping??) Teona Ann taught us a new card game, Idiots. I'm sure it got its name from a different crowd!? It was fun!



Food is always an important part of our get togethers and Jennae should have been awarded the most dedicated cook. Look at her out in the rain bar-be-quing?? Her trusty side-kick, Teona Ann is on umbrella duty. Good Job you two!! the meat was wonderful!



We freshened up the fall wreath and took it to the cemetery. I hope Mom knows how much we miss her and that she is never far from our thoughts, especially when we are in her kitchen. Love ya Mom. Love ya family, I cherish the times we spend together. Great Memories!!
