Family Dinner

Sunday night was so fun. I finally got to meet Jade, John's wife. She and John fit perfectly. We got to talk about married life plans and kids, she was really easy to talk to. I also saw Rob and Lana's family, which I haven't seen in two years. Maryann and Shane showed up with their kids{ we went to the beach with them last summer and really got to know and enjoy Riley, Mackenzie and Ethan}. Cristy and "The Little Prince" came to dinner. He is just so precious, all the kids wanted to hold and hold and hold him. {Ali and Morgie AKA: Little princesses didn't make it, Claire was sad.} Richard "The Week long Bachelor"{Libby and crew are driving home from her Mom's in Louisiana. She is a brave soul. Four, Four and under} came and talked some hoops. We were only missing Kathy and her family. They are camping .It was a great night' good food and lot's of laughs.

I am so blessed to have such an awesome family. We pretty much all get along all of the time. We love and support each other. We can have a big family dinner and all leave happy and satisfied. I miss out on most of these gatherings, so I am happy to be here in the middle of everyone. Todd, Julie, Heather, and Matt were missed also, but getting eleven sibs together is a big feat.

I am in awe of my parents that worked so hard to teach us all they had to offer. All of us are different and raise our kids differently, we all have our individual trials, but we are all Lewis's and it shows in our willingness to work hard and love all.
