Weekend with Ken and Lynne

Ken is Alden's brother ~ Lynne, our wonderful sister in law

What a treat for us to spend the weekend with them. We hardly ever get to spend time ~ just the 4 of us. We soooooo enjoyed it! Alden and I drove down Friday afternoon

What beautiful skies we saw ~ just beautiful.

Saturday we enjoyed a delicious southern breakfast ~

eggs, grits, biscuits and coffee. Yum!

The brothers enjoyed watching the NC State football game together. :)

NC State is quite evident around the house ~ love it!

What a fun place to be.......

Peaceful ~ relaxing

Ken and Lynne got to enjoy a video of Steve's band playing a show

Everyone got into it!

Alden and I headed to the beach for a bit ~

Ahhhh..........

Simply BEAUTIFUL!

It filled us up listening to the waves.....seeing the dolphin..... walking hand in hand.

We celebrated Ken's birthday ~ the BIG 5-0!!!!!!

Great dinner.......and the best company.

Um yes......fantastic dessert as well!

As we ate.....and enjoyed the evening.....

we pulled out the "50 Things We Love About Ken"

What a great time it was ~ honoring Ken.

It opened up lots of conversations about their childhood ~ just fun to

reminisce together.

The guys did a little work on the house ......

before we headed out on Sunday.

We got to visit with Aunt Louise on our way home ~

she is doing GREAT!

Enjoying some "Wild Berry Smoothies" together :)

Ate at one of our favorite places on the way home......

Blessed with family ~ and our time spent together.

Happy Birthday Ken!

We love you guys.
