June 4th, we travelled with Pam and Roger to Logan where we met Joan and Missy and her children to decorate Mom and Dad's graves. This day was Hal and my anniversary. After our visit to the cemetery we ate lunch at Fredrico's pizza restaurant and then stopped for ice cream at the Aggie ice cream snack shop. After a quick stop at the Bluebird we travelled on to the Wellsville cemetery to decorate the Park's graves - (they raised grandma Peterson after her mother died).
There is something therapeutic about the return to Logan every year - I am glad that we have that tradition!

June 5th was our Salad luncheon/tea party for the sisters, cousins and 2nd cousins. We prepared some delicious salads and Joan made some wonderful cupcakes. Allison brought mint brownies, Whitney contributed yummy fruit tarts and Kelly (with the help of Treygan) made tasty lemon rolls - Treygan is a great little chef! It was a really tasty menu! Then after lunch we had time to share memories of Mom and Dad, family weddings and visit while the younger cousins and second cousins played and sang together. All in all it was a fun event and we made some happy memories.
Sister chefs! Everything was as good as it looks! We missed you Kay and Cindy!!
Gigi sampling the maple frosting for the cupcakes! Those cupcakes were soooo good - just ask Gigi!

Thank you thank you Patty for hosting the tea party and us :) We had a wonderful week! It was so fun seeing Jessica and Gigi!
ReplyDeleteI thought I made a comment on here the other day, but I guess it didn't take. It looks like lots of fun. I'm sorry I couldn't be there- especially to hear Tricia's Gabrielsen wedding trivia. I hope she'll do a repeat performance!
ReplyDeleteLOVED the tea and watching the little kids interact. So glad you have started this awesome tradition, Patty! LOVED being with you, staying in the Doll Room, traveling to Logan together and cooking up a storm in your fabulous kitchen!
ReplyDeleteGigi and I had such a great time, can't wait to see you guys in a few more weeks!
