Graber Reunion

Life ...


We had a Graber Reunion this weekend at the school with around 75 in attendance.

Elizabeth & Maria Miller

Kelly kept the children entertained with her watches.

Sherri fixing poppers for the children.

Get ready, get set, shoot!


Jeanie sewed this comfort top together from Mom's scrap bag.
Miriam, Evie, Autumn, Josie, Bonnie



It wasn't long until we had it all completely tied.

Frying fish and hush puppies for Saturday's supper.
Craig, Galen, Richard, Kevin, and Jason with Tina looking on.

I enjoyed the beautiful sunset as we drove home from all the activities of the day.


... as a Quilter

From this picture that I took of Paul's folks about a year ago ...

... I fashioned this 18"X15" quilt and gave it to them for her 80th birthday.

David and Rachel brought their painting to share in the exhibit. Rachel said they took their painting along with them to Pureto Rico when they lived down there.

As we boarded the bus for our “Vera’s Journey” tour, I snapped a few photos of my cousins and families.


And now I can’t even remember some of my 1st cousin’s names. I’m not sure if this is Helen or Grace; but I do know she is U. James and A. Doris’ daughter.
