We spent a few days sharing time and laughs having a mini family reunion with some of my husbands side of the family. They put on many miles doing one of their favorite things ~ casino hopping! And I mean hopping! They jump in the van and visit casinos to and fro as they travel up from Tennessee, and Illinois to North Central Wisconsin . We had a ball, won some money, lost some money, won some money, lost some money. Final tally ~ we had some winners and we had some losers! But a good time was had by all.
We also visited the local park where our sweet Aunt who's 80 years young showed us how she's still a kid at heart.
What a doll!
EDITION: When I originally posted this yesterday I forgot to add my Bakin' stuff. So here it is. While we were gone our rhubarb grew and was needing harvesting on our return. So it was time to bake up a Strawberry Rhubarb Custard Pie and a small batch of Strawberry Rhubarb Jam; 3 jars and bowl for quick use. The rest went into the freezer for later use.

Loved these shots, especially the slide...you should send them to AARP magazine, seriously...I bet they would make a cover of her for their magazine...what inspiration!!!
Sounds like a lot of fun ~ as I'm sure it was! Auntie sliding down the slide is a priceless photo shot ~ great job. One question though... am I missing something here? Your post title is bummin' and bakin' ... so... what 'cha baking???
It looks like fun to take auntie to the park! What a gal! I was wondering where you had taken off to. I gave you an award on my blog. Come and visit. I can't wait to see your answers!
What fun!
Remember, we don't stop playing because we grow old...we grow old because we stop playing.
