New Memories!

Already weeks since the reunion... how can that be? We definitely made some new family memories -  It was soooo great to see everyone in the same room. It was very heartwarming!!! First, we can welcome in a new member to the family. In case you don't know,  just after Shawn and Vanessa got home that Sunday Vanessa gave birth to Gunner Kyros Joy, born on August 2nd weighing 6 lbs 13 oz. CONGRATULATIONS!


THANK YOU!! Klaus and Lee for orchestrating and taking this photo. It's just amazing! I know some of you might still be looking for a copy of the photo so I can print an 8 x 10 and send you one or  I can reduce the size of the photo and e-mail you a copy.  (the photo here is very small and won't print well) e-mail me at cleomahrey@hotmail.com


Some well-deserved thank yous:  Norene - thanks for the venue, food and everything!!! Vi - thanks for food, photos and everything!!! Lee - thanks for the desserts, family tree,  gifts and everything!!! Thank you Aaron for being MC and practising your "teacher voice." Thanks Nikki for bar tending. Thank you Joe Gray for that great video now our kids know we really were little once!! Thanks Blain for helping clean up the food etc. etc. Thank you to the burger grillers and thank you to all of you who helped set up, clean up and make light work where ever possible.

Just before the reunion I received some birth and marriage documents from Ken Kirkendall and they were displayed on the table at the reunion. (Anyone who received a disk has these on those disks) Thanks Ken for checking into your boxes for family docs.  I may be able to track more family history with this information. If anyone would like a disk I can also send that to you. Here are a couple of the docs:
