Trip to Ontario - Mom & Dad's 55th Anniversary

After the long but very quick drive home from Winnipeg we had a bit over a week to prepare for a long weekend family trip to Ontario for my parent's 55th anniversary.  After much planning we finally had plans to be together as an entire family.   It didn't work quite the way we planned as Yonson had to return to Indonesia but it was a wonderful time together.  We flew from Seattle to Detroit and drove the 4 hours to the Niagara peninsula.  The first day we spent with my Mom & Dad and our immediate family in Niagara Falls & Niagara on the Lake.  What a beautiful area - it's been many years for us and for some of our family it was the first time there.

We are so thankful for God's care over Mom & Dad these many years and we marvel at his faithfulness through the generations.  It was so fun to see the great grandkids playing together - even some playing with the little grandkids.  I'll post more pictures later - there was an Open House for extended family at my brothers under a big tent.  The following Monday was a Canadian holiday so we had a family day with brunch, games, activities and dinner to follow.  The weather was gorgeous & it was so hard to say goodbye to several family members who were leaving the next day.  God be with us till we meet again!
