January 17 & 18
Judi and her children enjoying window sunshine.
They just got word today – Friday, January 23 – that the paperwork has been completed for them to leave Pennsylvania and head home with their little guy – who is in the process of being adopted.
I am going to miss all four of them, and hearing K calling for Aunt Sheen. Reuben and Judi call me Aunt Doris Jean, and Aunt Sheen is her shortened version.
Now I can add Aunt Sheen to the list of names I respond to: Doris Jean, Doris, DJ, Jeanie, Aunt Jeanie, Mom, and Grandma.
A pretty Saturday evening sunset.
Sunday afternoon Truck Rally meeting.
This is the day each committee member fine-tunes their plans for the day – which is Saturday, June 27 this year.
Our son Jere leads the meeting as Rally Coordinator.
There are some fun new events for this year – like an outside climbing wall for the children and teenagers.
We are discontinuing the evening light show due to safety reasons. We are all concerned about trucks moving into place and away from the grounds with so many people walking around.
I say this every year. I do not like committee meetings, but this is the best team in the world.
How disappointing that safety concerns cause cancellation of the light show — that has been one of the more fun parts of the day, according to your previous years’ posts. I understand why that happens, but how sad!
It was a beautiful part of the day, but not worth the danger it causes.
Aunt Sheen. That is so cute! Yes, you will indeed miss them. I wonder if they’re able to leave in this weather though.
Yes, they are well on their way to their destination for today. So far their travels have gone well.
