Where do I start?    It has been go, go, go since March 27th. 

We arrived in Bainbridge, Georgia at the home of Carolyn and Keith Newberry, my cousins to help with the wedding of their daughter Kadee.   Now you have to understand this is wedding number 3 that we have been a part of and we told them thanks for not having any more children. 
First thing off the bat we found out that there were going to be about 100 more people at the reception than they had planned on so they went into the panic mode but I settled them down and started making lists of the things we had to change and who we had to notify.   To make a very long story short the wedding and reception went off beautifully without a HITCH thanks to lots of their friends and family. 
It was a wonderful treat to have our daughter Ally and her family come to Bainbridge for this event. They had been in Florida all week as it was Spring Break for their children and everyone else from "the North".  We got to take our Grands to a park, and do lots of things with them on Saturday before the wedding and then had a great time at the wedding and reception.   Sophia the almost 3 year old had herself a ball dancing.  It was a late night with all the cleanup we had to do but these old folks made it however Sunday was a different story.  We were "pooped" but still got to enjoy the Grands for a while before they left to go home to Indiana.
We stayed until Tuesday afternoon helping to get things put away and lots of laundry done and now we are in Greer SC with BIll and Deb Dorris.   Bill and I have know each other since second grade in Bainbridge.

On Saturday we will start our trip back to Virginia to be there about 5 weeks and then we start the trip to Alaska with Jim and Linda Matheny. 

I will try my best to do better with the Blog while on that trip.
