2009-last weekend of June

After arriving that Friday pm, we visited for awhile but as the TV was on we soon looked over at this quiet couple to see that they were fast asleep! I know Kari had worked the night before plus a short "night's" sleep as they drove here, but do you think wedding plans made them exhausted!!!
Then this past week I have been making these Scandinavian Almond cakes for the reception. I have 17 in the freezer. Just have to frost them on Friday in FF. Also got several other projects am responsible to do all completed. Now it is to wait for our company tonight and then 4 others Wednesday..wedding festivities begin in earnest! What fun to see so many family and friends coming to join us in this happy occasion.

Then that Sunday afternoon we attended a 50th wedding anniversary celebration for my cousin, Al and his wife, Ina. We wish you many more years together!

Here are 4 Erickson cousins helping them celebrate. Margarethe, Janet, Alice, & Al.

One evening recently little David and his parents were over visiting. G-pa was having fun playing and teaching him some different & new things like climbing up G-pa's legs plus being up in a tree branch. He seemed quite pleased with himself!
