Uncle Bud

Saturday, June 6th

Every year we get together as a memorial to my Uncle Bud. Usually we eat at Whistlin Jacks on the pass; however, this year my cousin Dan and his family were unable to make it, so we decided to make the breakfast place closer.
It was a lot of fun and chaos--which means we will continue to do it next year too!
We ate at the Maltby Cafe, about an hour north of us. Those who made it were: Ginny's family (minus Steve), Beth's family, Beaner and Allen (Beaner is my cousin), my dad and mom, and us.
Bry says, make sure you write that it was crowded, because somebody reserved a table for 12 and there were 16 of us (BRUCE)!!!

Casper liked all the attention--
The kids would come over to our side of the table to visit him

Samantha

Getting our food.
There was too much food, so a lot was left over.

Cutting up pancakes, sausages, etc.
Then all conversations stopped!
(Well, Casper would complain periodically if I didn't give him my sausages fast enough)
We ate, Grandpa paid, we left.
I think we'll do it again next year!
(Uncle Bud would have really enjoyed this!)
