Valentines Day 2005

Greetings! I last posted information about "Our Wedding" - Sarah and Istvan were married on November 27th, 2004. It was a wonderland gathering of family and friends. The Bride and Groom were glowing.

On Feburary 11th we celebrated our Granddaughter's birthday in Indianapolis. Alexis Izabella was 1 year old! Walking, talking (or trying to), and so good natured. All Grandparents and Aunts and Uncles, including 2 Great-Grandmas, were able to attend. How do the Proverbs put it? It is a blessing to see your children's children. Yes, it was for me. How blessed we are!

Changes in dinner reception directions (signage)

Riverside Terrace now has a sign out front. The awning with the previous name of the building is gone. This should help you find it at 426 Lincoln Way East in Mishawaka.

Also, the phone number for Fairway Inn in Elkhart has been corrected. Sorry, I was one digit off and you would not have gotten through had you tried to call. It is 574.266.1940.

We are looking forward to a great weekend. See you soon.
