friends gathering...

yaay, yaay, the gangs all here!!

this is our thanksgiving eve gathering... (i know, i know...better late then never!)
some of the crowd

i love it that the older gang are around still!!

here are the college kids now... makes me feel old! lol

we had a great time as usual. i enjoyed seeing and fellowshipping with everyone since we don't get to do it that often anymore... it only took us about an hour to all straggle in to Denny's!
(not my top choice, but it was the only place that would hold us all and that we wouldn't get kicked out of by 11pm!)

where else... concert!

one very cold night in oct....jeff, steph, mom and i went to a concert. not just any concert, but Michael W. Smith and Steven Curtis Chapman together!! it was their first ever concert playing together. we started with dinner, enjoyed a concert full of great music, memories, and worship, and even found some friends on the way out :) it was a great night!

i know i should have posted this earlier...but better late then never right!!!

when i got home i took jeff and stephanie to Cogshall to take some engagement pictures...

the end of the year... what i missed posting
