Stecher Family Gathering

Today we had a fun family afternoon! We had Travis' side of the family down for a cookout. It was fun to have all the family together and the little ones running around. It was too windy for a fire in the fire pit, bummer, but we had good food, and good company anyway. Tyler is almost 1, he'll be 1 on the 7th of July, Caleb is going on 3 and Annica just turned 5. This was a special get together as the Chervenka's are moving very soon to Des Moines Iowa and get-togethers like this will take a little more planning and advance notice in the future.

All in all, Buddy did quite well, he left the little ones alone until it was time to eat. We didn't dare leave him inside when we were all outside eating due to his food binging problems....see previous post!
When Heather, Kirk and the kids were getting ready to head home we noticed Buddy was no where to be found...
Travis found him inside, he had snuck in when the door was opened. When Travis found him he was on the floor pulling on the aluminum foil that was on the table housing the grilled potatoes. Buddy was grr, grr, grring and pulling potatoes down upon his head.....We could hear Travis yelling from the back patio! Buddy was swiftly kicked out the back door and the back door slammed! Uh-Oh, here we go again!

It was a wonderful day and one that I know Travis and I will remember, and cherish for a long time to come!
