Many thanks

I want to thank everyone that helped out with the family get-together and open house. I had a blast with my disfunctional family. It was so nice to see everybody pitch in and help out and as far as I know there were no fist fights or slug fests between my siblings. (We would have never lasted that long together 40 or 50 years ago.) Good job! And I only had 1 child there so my kids behaved themselves pretty good too. However, I'm not sure what happened at Lance's house during that time period.

So my report on the day goes something like this; good food, good folks, good fun, good pictures. No incidents to report. The closest thing to an incident would have been when we all attacked Earl for being 45 min late for the family pictures. I think he wins the Dork of the Day Award. Congrats Earl you represented the Petersen Family well.

And no more open houses for a few years! As a "heads up", Richard's family is in charge of the summer get-together next year. Are his kids good to do that?

I have missed the winter get-together for the last couple of years. Who did it last year? Well what I really want to know is who is in charge of it this year?

Thanks again to all. And I want you to know that I will remember last Sat. for a long time. It was a special day for me.

And stay tuned for my pictures.
