More reunions...and Obon Odori!

On our way home, we stopped to see/meet Lynn, Fred and their daughter Lauren! Lynn was Jeff's 2nd year Resident Advisor...and we had hooked up via FB. Coincidentally, Fred is a cousin of someone we know in Fremont. His aunt didn't believe that we had lunch with him on Sunday....hee hee....gotta be careful..."you never know who is related to who".... After lunch, we made it home in time for Obon Odori @ SACBC! It was a beautiful night, and although we were exhausted (we drove into our driveway at 6:05...service was at 6:30 and dancing started at 7:00!), the boys and I survived the evening! Jeff stayed home to unload the van and start the laundry....such a good husband!

I was so happy to see Yumi and Mike at Obon! I dragged out Yumi....she had a good time...really she did...maybe I can get her to dress up with me next year....(if we are in town)....I was too tired from the trip to drag out my yukata....
This is one of my favorite people @ SACBC...Dr. Hashimoto. He was all decked out and ready to dance....he is such a nice man!

Brother Ray also dressed up....doesn't he look nice? He is so in the spirit!!!
Our niece Megan is all dolled up...

And little sis Rachel is just SOOO CUTE!!!!

Dustin, Brett, Jordan and Neil in their hapi coats! Jordan's coat is looking a little small...I might need to pick up a new one for next year!

This afternoon we celebrated Preston and Auntie Irene's birthdays at Claimjumpers. Everyone had a good time...with everyone's schedules, it seems like the "birthday lunches" are the only time we see each other. :(

One of the presents we got Preston was a Popcorn Popper for the campfire. He and Gary go camping...I thought this would be fun!


Jeff and I decided that if my necklace didn't "sell" at the Silent Auction, I should give it to Auntie Irene. I have been wanting to make her one...so, maybe it was fate that no one bid on it at the Bazaar....she kinda knew she was getting it...it looked great on her!
