Family & Friends 2014

Like last year we had a gathering of family and friends that we don't see very often. Since our time in Bluefield is short, we just gather all in one place. This year we met at Debbie's church.

This is Bobbie Burton with my mom. She use to live next door to me when we lived in Bluefield. 

On the left is Edna Bone & her daughter Marsha in the pink. They went to church with us when we lived here. In the background is my friend Susie. She was gracious enough to dogsit Bailey yesterday while we were at Winterplace.

My cousin Beatie (Roten) Dunn mom's side of family behind Kristin and my 2nd Cousin Tracy Porter (Kidd side of family) on the other side of Kristin.

These are my 3rd cousins Joseph & Jordan Porter from Wisconsin (Kidd side of family)

With hat on is my cousin Mike (mom's side) beside him on left is his son Scott. Also Nancy (Mike's wife) with her & Mike's grandsons Levi & Lucas. Pretty girl in pink is Scott's wife Kristy.

We had a great time on our trip to Bluefield and hope to be back soon.

2014 Winterplace trip to Virginia!

Another year tradition at Winterplace! I love bringing the family to my hometown area. Wish Craig and his family could have made it.

 Buddy was taping Shelby coming down for her first time so, no pics, but Mitchell had already been down and was watching too. 

 Kristin's smile tells it all

 Looks like her eyes are closed here

 but taking it all in here

 I think Mitchell was going too fast and was trying to slow down

 A little husband and wife competition going on

 Kristin trying to video John while going down.

 Last trip up for Kristin & Mitchell

 Fun day
