Family Time

Tonight we went out for dinner with Melody's family. Seven of us in total. We wanted to make it a special anniversary dinner as her brother and sister-in-law are celebrating 30 years and her Mom and Dad are celebrating 54 years.
Before dinner we made a stop off at the Rutherford House for some pictures. Here is a shot of all of us. Then we went out for dinner at the MacDonald Hotel
