I have Karen, Mom, Kelly, Joan, Myself, and Dyke's mom already signed up for some of this food.

As far as the activities planned for the day......hoping to get our gym to play some volleyball, and hoping to set up a shooting station (clay pigeons) for the men, boys, or whoever would like to. (Need to talk to Keith, Kyle, and Jim about this), and I also am working on a VanDrunen "Sibling" game for everyone to play.

If you have any extra people to bring with , please just let me know so I can figure out the seating, and enough food, etc. ALL ARE WELCOME!!!

Thanks......Dyke and Karyl

That's My King

Pretty cool illustrated bit of a sermon...

Spa Day

Last Thursday Karley, Anna, and I drove from our home at the Trin to South Holland to spend the afternoon with Grandma. We had some fabulous quality time getting pampered at the nail salon in Lansing, where we got manicures and pedicures. Then we crossed the street and had pie at Baker's Square. It was so fun to spend the afternoon together...and I am so thankful that I have such an incredible family!

A game suggested by Grandma...see if you can guess whose feet are whose...

O yeah...and don't worry...if you didn't come along this time, there will definitely be another! Thanks for spending the afternoon with us Gram! (and thanks Grandpa for being our photographer!)
