This picture was taken the Sunday after Miranda's wedding. We were all at the "Microtel Motel" in NewUlm. Upon waking up there was much excitement about the great wedding the night before. We had so much fun, dancing, singing and socializing with friends and family. And now today there is more excietment... today is August 8th! Something wonderful happened on August 8,1980... now it was 30 years later... YES! Emily Jo's 30th birthday.
...Conner Dallas was in our room and I helped to get him dressed up. We were going to the pizza ranch to all eat together as a family for her birthday. It was over 100 degrees outside so the idea for a reminisce picnic at Flandrau was caboosed.
...We took off the shark pj's and replaced it with new blue jean shorts and a nice crisp cotton shirt. We combed his hair, washed his face, brushed his teeth and I was thinking to myself that he looked mighty sharp. Curt was laying on the bed watching TV.
...Conner looked at himself in the mirror and then looked at Curt laying on the bed and he smiled and said "Papa, I look just like you!" then he climbed up and layed by gramps on the bed.
...If it wasn't for that blond hair and brown eyes... I don't know if we could tell them apart!
What a wonderful week-end it was indeed.
Thank you God for weddings, little boys, grandchildren and 30th birthdays!!
