Croquet Anyone?

Casey and Kelly came over for the Labor Day Waldon Family Reunion. Mother is the last remaining of the oldest generation. There were six 1st cousins in attendance, and five of our children. We had eight spouses and five children's children.


Kelly & I played one game and then swooped Grandma inside so she could show us how to put a baby quilt together for Kelly's expected niece.



However, fascinated by the complexity of the croquet "rules" and completely under the power of their out of control competitive natures, Casey and Larry continued to play game-after-game until well after the mosquitoes had had seconds and the armadillos were beginning to occupy the course. We loved having them home and hope they come again soon.

Wow! Great pictures! I love the one where Chloe's "laughing hysterically". I've never seen her make that face. She says to tell Shirley hello. Thanks so much for helping with my quilt...we got A LOT done. Did Grandma get my card?
