Good Friends

Yesterday's parish picnic was enjoyed, I think, by all in attendance. Since Joann did such a good job of blogging the good time that was had by all I think that I will just chronicle all of the familiar faces that were there. Below you can pick out our beloved Dr. Jim and his brother Mr. John in among the kids.
Of course Mrs. Alessi was there with some of her good home baking.

And Mr. Alessi came with her. He asked about Adam as he always does and assured us that Adam remains in his prayers.
Mr. Buehner and Mr. Mollenhauer chatted together. We were all happy to see Pappa Buehner out and about. And there is Mr. Hesler with his lovely bride of 50 years and their son-in-law Pat.
Mr. Mollenhauer.
Grandma Vito sharing memories of picnics past and our beloved Pappa Vito and all the good times that he provided to the kids in all of us. He was there with us in spirit.
Doug visiting with Pappa Buehner.

Another shot of the lovely Mrs. Hesler. That one was worth repeating.


And here is Mrs. Collins with her beautiful daughter Becky. Joann is a good mother and a great friend.

Out humble Padre was there spreading his love and good cheer to all of the people. The children who were in attendance were the recipients of his good humor also as we all were in years past.

Mr. John and Mrs. Megan enjoying a few minutes of down time. Mrs. Megan provided a great day for the young and old alike with her great games.

Dave and Donna presided over the food table.
Mr. Hugunine and Mrs. Cmaylo in line to get their food.
Mrs. Hugunine ready with a smile for everyone who passed by her.
Here's Audrey.

I had to include a picture of a rare occurrance. Jason and Matthew in the three legged race. They didn't win but they were in full cooperation which is a rare happening.
