Another fun weekend in the books...both my sister was here from Iowa and Rich's Mom and brother Shawn...so what to do...Family BBQ time, obviously!

Prepping for the fun...(the beautiful flowers are from Aunt Roxy and Grandma)...so gorgeous!!!

It was time for some of the troops to go...so Alison jumped on board and waved BYE-BYE with Chukar!
Sunday was a BOAT-load of fun...when Lori invited us to tour the cruise ship and have a delightful lunch!
