Del Rio reunion part II








This weekend has been great. The weather has cooperated allowing us to be outdoors and active (in the 60's and low 70s). On Saturday Ed, CJ and John took advantage of that and played golf while Joy and the girls took Kylan to the playground and had relay races, played freeze tag, climbed on the toys, slid down the slides, ran and jumped and skipped and pretty much exhausted everybody but Kylan! Katie has been a wonderful hostess and the food has been great. We had a Wii tournament (video games) in the evening and ended with a rousing game of chick-a-boom to end the day. Sunday we went to church at Del Rio Bible Church and then headed out to the lake to enjoy the low 70's temperature on the water. Emily, John and CJ were brave enough to put on a shorty wet suit and jump into the 52 degree water for some wakeboarding. The rest of us cheered and encouraged them on. We came back to the house for a bbq cookout with several of CJ and Katie's friends. Monday morning we made our first trip back to the airport to send Emily back to her home in Virginia on the 6:15 a.m. flight. Tuesday, Erin and John were to leave on the same flight only to have their plans upset with ground fog and a canceled flight. We're praying for clearing weather so they can catch the only other flight out of DRT at 4:15. As the family again scatters to four winds and their respective homes we are full of thanks to God our faithful provider that we have these times and look forward in faith to the next reunion whenever and wherever it may be.
