Relaxing in Ridgefield

Relaxing at our familiar house in Ridgefield was comforting after completing our family Alaska / Canadian adventure. It was special to have the family staying with us in Ridgefield. The long road trip where we spent most nights camping did wear all of us down some. Cecilia was very excited to have time with her cousins whom she had really been looking forward to seeing. Of course Nancy and I enjoyed having Kari, Charles, Travis and Wren and Brett, Kasey and Cecilia around the house. You can see Kari trying to relax in the recliner as she is surrounded by the kids. We spent a lot of time in the kitchen which we are pleased is large enough to accommodate large family gatherings. We couldn’t let Bill and Deanna fly back to Tennessee without having the families gather at a favorite restaurant, The Spaghetti Factory, for a feast. As you can see, we did have a rather large gathering and of course enjoyed a fun evening before dropping Bill and Deanna off for a red-eye flight to Nashville.
