Meet and Greet for Lance and Deanna

On August 3rd, we began with a little "Meet and Greet" for Lance and Deanna at Marriott Mountainside. Many family members couldn't attend their wedding reception in Cali in Dec., so we decided to have a little something for both families here. Lance and Deanna came to the McKinlay extended family reunion the weekend before, so many of the McKinlays were able to meet Deanna. Some couldn't attend the next week, but here is a picture of those who came! Pictured left to right is Alex and Andrew, Uncle Danny, Lance, Deanna, and Cousin Emily! Aunt Rosemary and Uncle John came, too - wish they were in the picture as well! The extended Purdy family came and it was fun to meet them and to become better acquainted with them. Actually, Charlotte and Peter Tidwell and Danielle and Kate McKinlay drove up to help with the grandchildren on Temple night. They were so sweet - we sure love them and so do the grandchildren! Thank you for your unselfish service to the family and for your love. Iris and Melanie came up during the week and spent several hours with us, too! What a treat!
