Patty and Dan Sr.'s Visit to Ohio (Part 2)

On Sunday May 6, the family convened in Howland Township, (near Warren), OH to see Patty and Dan Sr.  They also enjoyed Dan Jr., Laura, Amy Marie, and Emily.  The participants from my family were Kathleen, Tim, Maggie, Mike Schabel, Lois, Joe, Mandy, and Yours Truly.  In addition, Dan's brother and sister-in-law Mike and Joanne joined the festivities.  It was very nice to see people that I have not seen in awhile.

We enjoyed Hot Dogs, Hamburgers, and a "fancy" pasta salad that contained squash, cherry tomatoes, zucchini, black olives, and green peppers.  It was interesting but tasty!  We also enjoyed some dessert that included pies from Perkins (Bob and I enjoyed slices of pie from Perkins with our dinner on Wednesday.  I had the Chocolate French Silk!  I believe that Bob had the Peanut Butter Silk Pie that was featured at the cook-out!) that Mandy provided!  Joe contributed some imported candy from Ziggy's Produce on Broadview Road near my house that I picked up on the way to the party.  If I missed any contributions, they were enjoyed as well.

We eventually left!  Joe missed the connection with US 422, so we stayed on OH 82 until we took a detour to where my brother used to work years ago!  It was nice to see some new sights and to review old sights that I had not seen in awhile.  When I reached my house, I spent the rest of the evening relaxing.  The party was fun, especially since Amy Marie and Emily, were not crabby!!

I would like to wish all my Reader Moms an early Happy Mother's Day!
