Amy enjoying a gift as Dustin looks on...Janice is seated looking on.


Tammy, Amy & Dustin...


A view from behind..


Another view from behind..The folks standing up were carrying gifts to the table where Amy was opening them


Another view from the behind. An impressive array of gifts were there..

Amy hard at it...Dustin got writer's cramp, I think...


A view from the side. I think Tammy & Matt (far wall) were getting the last of the gifts brought to Amy & Dustin

The family & friends look on as Amy opens & Dustin logs...

Amy, Tammy & Dustin. I think this is where Amy gave Dustin some erroneous information as to what was from who...


Amy gives me a big smile as Dustin, Tammy and others look on..


Amy & Dustin looking at opened gifts as Matt S & Matt B attend to the carrying of gifts to the table.


Amy & Dustin try to open a gift without destroying the bow..Tammy looks on..


Amy decides which gift to open next as Dustin writes away and Tammy puts an opened gift on the table behind


Amy opening the last gift as Dustin & Tammy look on


OOPS!! I got these out of order...Oh well, this is still the opening gift part, so, Dustin writes as Amy opens & Tammy awaits a gift to put on the table.


Tammy trying to sort the remaining gifts as Amy & Dustin open another wedding gift.


Family & friends look on as the opening of gifts continue..


Janice hands out punch to the thirsty onlookers


Dustin has a look of bewilderment on his face as he is told, a gift opened, was from another other than what he wrote down..I felt sorry for him..He did a lot of logging today


The group watches as Rhonda takes a picture..


The opened gifts that Tammy lined up. Some of those boxes were heavy too.


Time for cake & more punch.

Everybody digging into the cake. Janice liked it.


Janice giving me the look that if I take a picture of her eating, I'm a dead man.


Janice & others eating & I am still breathing...Until she wakes up in the morning & sees this post...


Everyone looked to be having a good time..Lots of smiles...


Getting ready to load the gifts into the truck for the ride home to their house, Dustin stands ready to load the heavier items into the bed of the truck.

Rhonda, Dustin & Amy getting ready to load & leave..

Janice, Brenda, Tammy Dustin, Betty & Amy getting ready to leave..


Rhonda, standing in the shade, where is was about 103 degrees, is ready to get into an air conditioned vehicle..We all were, except I was on my motorcycle

Tammy backed that BIG truck up and was standing in the cab grinning..She done good..


Prior to departure, Dustin & Amy, got the helium filled balloons off of the railing..


Then they let the balloons go and upward they went..


Here are the balloons as they gain some altitude and head North...Wonder where they ended up?


The final picture of the day: Brenda, Rhonda, Tammy, Dustin & Amy.

That will conclude this post. We had a good time & finally got to meet some of Dustin's family that he & Amy are always talking about. Dustin & Amy had a good time and were very thankful to all for the beautiful gifts they recieved..Now, on August 30th, they get married...I know they are looking forward to it..They make a good looking couple.

Be sure to scroll down for more family stuff. I have been neglecting this site due to the motorcycle runs, rides & events that have been taking up my time with the other blog. But I hope to get caught up & devote more time for family posts...Until next post, ya'll be careful out there.................John
