Bev, Lisa and the children started on Thursday and we spent the evening and night with Grandma and Grandpa Smiley in DeSoto. 
Kayla and Great-Grandpa spending a few moments in the porch swing. The rain followed us all the way there and we would soon find out would follow us all the way to Indiana. (Thanks to Hurricane Ike!)
Finally.....we arrived in Bremen and the cousins got to spend time together playing.
Janelle and Doug at the wedding reception.
I had to include this picture showing the huge bouquet of flowers. We have been following the journey of growing these flowers all summer and they were beautiful. They were even picked in pouring rain.
