Ahhhhh…… what a wonderful weekend! Our need for food (spiritual and natural), fellowship and friendship was well met this weekend. Friday night there was a potluck for the entire field and our visitors shared some experiences. We had worker company for Friday night AND Saturday night- unheard of in WI!!!

| Here are our visitors. Really enjoyed their time in our home and talks around the table. Mark M. is in Nevada and Jeremy B. is in Colorado. We really enjoy speaking "Wisconsin" with Jeremy since that is his native state also! Our special meeting was less than 2 miles from our home. It was HUGE- about 650 people!!! As I was sitting there I thought, "Wow all these people and I am not related to anyone." Then I saw a young couple that looked familiar and realized that I had seen their wedding photos on FB. He is son of one of my Enge cousins, Denita! I had never met her children before. He was transplanted from Oregon. This really proves that I can find a relative almost any where I go. |

| My lame attempt at fall decorating. I think it looks strange….guess I shouldn't have paired a pumpkin with a palm tree. |
 |
| After meeting we had 15 guests over for a Low Country Boil. In case you haven't had that….it involved our camp stove, a big pot of water, Bay Seafood Seasoning, salt, potatoes, onions, garlic, kielbasa, sweet corn, and shrimp. Yum! We really love entertaining on our patio and look forward to having all of you blog readers over someday too. Several of our guests have Midwestern roots or connections so that was special too. |
 |
| My adopted daughters. Deanna is your classic California surfer model and Jacinda is my much loved Wisconsin girl. |
 |
| Sarah and Marshall are newly transplanted Wisconsinites who are now living the good life in sunny Cali |
 |
| We always love to have some nice boys around! |
 |
| The chef in the background. Ryan and Jane. Ryan's claim to fame is being the uncle to the adorable Minzie and Minah! He is also a newly wed with a wife still in Brazil! And Jane- my very special friend! |
 |
| Let the feasting begin! |
 |
| These two couples seem to not mind hanging out with us old folks. Bob seems to find our accent quite amusing! |
 |
| Isn't he handsome? |
 |
| Ended the evening with a bonfire. |
Hmmmm... how much did you say plane tickets to CA are? ;)
ReplyDeleteSouthwest has the best prices for us:) Winter tickets are really reasonable!
DeleteThat was such a fun evening! Thank you again for wonderful food and friendship!
ReplyDeleteFrom looking at your blog, I would guess you are Tristan's parents. I'm guessing it's the same one that I know. I have a cousin who married a guy from WI, and also, I am related to Linda D. somehow. I have seen dragonfruits, but never the inside, pretty neat, I must say!
