Visit with Gaylynne's brother and his family

Greg and Shelley Broderick came to our home on Sunday so that they could do a little bit of sight-seeing.

Jessica, Melanie, and Dayton decided to stay here with me and play instead of going with their families.

Nice for me. These two little girls are a riot. Both of them very theatrical.

When Neal got home from church he was quite hungry. Not wanting to wait until everyone got home he toasted up this yummy sandwich.

Ham, turkey, salami and swiss on a toasted hoagie roll. "Boy, Don would be jealous if he saw this". For a joke I took a photo of it but forgot to show Don when he returned home.

Dayton enjoyed his alone time and fixed himself a bit of a tea party.

"Mine", he said as he brought out the cups and dishes.

He then clearly asked for some sugar and some water.

He enjoyed that and a glass of milk but refused lunch.

The girls, on the other hand, each ate a bowl of tomato soup with crackers, and a glass of soda.

About 5 minutes later they wanted to know where their eggs were.

I laughed and made them eggs and toast which they ate.

I warned Shelley and Gaylynne that the girls might not want dinner but to my surprise they both ate dinner as well.

Mel bit into the chewy crust of a very yummy slice of Como bread and made a bee-line to the bathroom with her Daddy right on her heels.

In not very much time they returned to the table and guess what!?!



Yep, Mel is now without 7 of her teeth.

Even more than Courtney!

I had made up a very big batch of Hamburger Stroganauf, a jello salad, a green salad was prepared by Gaylynne and her other niece. I made a big dish of brownies for dessert too.

After dinner we all went for a walk through the neighborhood. Melanie and Jessica again opted out and stayed at home.

We truly enjoyed getting to know Gaylynne's family a little better and hope that they will come visit again some time.
