Aunt Holly was so good to do projects with the kids everyday. On this particular day, she made gingerbread houses with them.
One other thing I requested while I was in Jackson, Michigan, was to go to the All-Star Dairy. Most of the time I was growing up was spent in Nebraska, but my dad's family was all in Michigan, so every summer we went up to Michigan for a week. When we were in Michigan (with my dad's 4 brothers, my grandfather and grandmother, and all 20 of my cousins) we always went to the All-Star Dairy for ice cream. I have many wonderful memories of being in the All-Star Dairy playing with my cousins and having a fabulous time. After 20 years, I finally got to go back with my own kids.
This first picture is of my dad, Papa, with Rebekah's daughter, Tori, and my son, Eli.
Starting at the far end is James, then Major, Bill, myself, my dad, my mom, Tori, Rebekah, Katie, Brady, Haley, and Eli.
The big ice cream at the All-Star Dairy is called the "Dare to be Great" and has 50 scoops of ice cream. Holly, DJ, Tyler, Major, and I share the Junior Dare to be Great (25 scoops of ice cream) and didn't even finish half of it. It was a ton of ice cream!
Cousins' ice cream! Eli, Haley, Brady, and Katie
