A New Brother-in-law and a Trip Down Memory Lane

I guess it's now 2 weekends ago (the 14-16th) that we made a trip down to Burley to celebrate my sister Susan's wedding and welcome Chad into our crazy family. They had the ceremony in beautiful Sedona and then we gathered for a casual family dinner a few days later at Cherie's new house in Burley.
With only one sister (and her family) missing, it really was like a family reunion. The day of the dinner, we spent time together like the good ol' days - eating lunch elbow-to-elbow, making pies from scratch assembly-line style...


Playing piano duets and laughing at all the mess-ups...


...and of course - the dreaded tickle tortures!!

And, it's not likely we'll ever grow out of any of it!

For such a short trip, we had a great time. Andy even got to sneak away from the madness and go trapping with a buddy for an afternoon, and we came away from it all with an awesome new brother-in-law, more family memories, and....awful colds!
