For all you non-family members, let me explain the shirts.
Our family shirts are:
1. Color coded
2. Embroidered with your generation
AY5-first generation (original 5 children of Dutch & Molly)
AY 12- second generation
AY 29+- third generation (our group, there were 29 grandkids, but they didn't want to keep re-embroidering shirt, thus the +)
AY4- fourth generation
Also, AY was the original brand marking for the family (like for cattle and other brandable things (children, disgruntled neighbors, etc.))
Green
AY5- Glenna (middle)
Red
AY5- Dale (3rd from right)
Blue AKA the Best
AY5- Shirley
This picture really sums up most of the members.
Clayton is always yelling (white cap)
Kacie is acting a fool.
And we continually pick on Ben (hands on head, who OFFICIALLY joins the family July 9th!)
We missed you Angela!
(and it's only fitting that SmithCale took pictures all weekend, and one of the ONLY picture he's in, Kacie is blocking him! Such is life!)
Tan
AY5- Janet (middle right)
Yellow
AY5- Bobby
I wish there was another word for what it feels like to become part of this family, blessed just doesn't seem strong enough.
But, I am blessed, enriched and guided by every member.
Thank you, and see you all next year!
