Yoder Reunion week end 2009

Reunions- renewing relationships and food and more food. It was held at Allensville Fire Company grounds. Two brothers being goofy. This is Jay and Glen sone of my Uncle Jakie. He was my Daddy's youngest brother. Jay was born (I think) in August of 1950 and Judy was born in December the same year.
The fire company has a playground for kids. The girl at the far r5ight is Jay's daughter. The girl on the left is married to Glen's son. I'm not sure who the other girl is- one of the girls who married a Yoder.
The older folks sat around and enjoyed talking. The girl on the left is sitting beside her mother in law, Dorothy who is married to my cousin Marlin. The girl with the red jacket is my cousin Joe's daughter Peggy.
Here we have more conversation. The one with her hand up is married to my cousin Danny. The young girl on the left is engaged to Lois & Danny's grandson. The girl in the front is Lois & Danny's daughter. Lois is talking to Jay's wife Dee.
These are my cousins Joe, Marlin, and Danny. They are the sons of my Daddy's oldest brother, Dan. Any time you see these three brothers together they always sit according to age. Danny is the one who is having a drink. Danny is the oldest. His birthday is the day after mine and he is 87 now. He was in the Air Force in World War II and the Germans thought he was a German because they could understand his PA Dutch. He and Lois visited some of his German friends several years ago.Some of the playground equipment. Coleton (Jenny's son) is the one wearing the hat.
We took several Cousin pictures. Sara Ann and I were the only girl cousins. Danny Lee had three sons: Anny, Marlin, and Joe. Of course my family was me, Sara Ann and Chuck. Chuck didn't make it in from Michigan.
My youngest Uncle Jakie had three sons, Glen, Lloyd and Jay. Lloyd died several years ago.

One extra picture of the cousins. A good time was had by all.

I sure made a bunch of typos. In too big a hurry!

Those guys still look the same. They sure are characters, that's what I remember from being there last year.
