ANY ONE?

just wondered if anyone ever comes back here to read. I know facebook has taken over the nation, but it would be nice to get an up date on everyone!! Chime in if you've been on here lately! If not, I'll go to face book and get everyone of yaw!! Besides, we got another reunion to start planning!!!

Aunt Tressie

Most of you have probably got the news on face book or an email, but if not, we got some bad news. Aunt Tressie (Uncle Pete's wife) passed away today. Evonna kept us informed of her condition in earlier blog entries. I don't have any details yet, maybe one of you do. If so, please post it. As for Evonna, Jerry and Vernon, all the grandkids and great grandkids, you will be in our prayers and I'm sure Aunt Tressie and Uncle Pete are together again in Heaven. There are no words to describe the loss of a parent. Evonna and Francis, we know you did a great job taking care of both your parents. They will be missed -that's for sure. We love you all, and wish we could be there to help you get thru this hard time. Please know that you will all be in our prayers and thoughts during this time. We love you all. God Bless and please let us know if there is anything at all that we could do for you.
Love,
Jack and Sandi

Planning

Okay gang, does anyone have a preference as to the best date for another reunion? Who can come? Who can't?

And the big question...Should we move this show to Facebook since everyone seems to be there?

Feedback please.

Love,
Jodi

Happy Birthday BLOG!

First let me begin with an apology for not being in touch more. I've missed lots of birthdays and I sincerely feel bad about that. Now it's time to say happy birthday to the blog.

The blog began Oct. 31, 2007 and it lead to one of the best times of my life. I am hoping that maybe this is a good day to ask everyone to come back to Arkansas for a second reunion this summer.

I miss you all so much--and we we had such a good time before! There are a lot of people who didn't get to make it the first time, it would just be a shame if we only got together once.

Please leave word if you're interested in a reunion this summer, and if so, what day works best for you.

I love you all so much! Please, please, please let's try for Ladd Reunion Part Deux!

Sincerely,
Jodi

Hello all,

I wanted to share this photo , taken yesterday, of 3 Ladd ladies that didnt make it to the reunion.

Alyx, my youngest, Debbie in the middle and Julaine, my oldest daughter on the right. I couldnt be more proud of them.

I have become way to lax at checking in on our blog. It was a bit of a rough summer for us. I hope that I do better over the winter.

Be well,

Love

Orrin

BOO HOO!

This time last year we were all gearing up for a great reunion. Sure doesn't seem that long ago. Will never forget it, and certainly hope it won't be the last one. I haven't got to write personal stuff on the net too much lately, so I thought I'd stop and just tell everyone to have a safe and wonderful July 4th. ....oh, and a couple of updates? Check out Dylan at his Jersy Boys web site. We just might have the next super star! Jimmie has a new hobby, he has been in 2 "sell out" plays. One was a church play, and just recently he landed a part in Beauty and the Beast at a theater downtown Jonesboro. His wife Charlotte and son Asa were also in the first play. Asa played the part of Jesus. Wow! Hard act to follow!! Also, we are all "tickled to death" that Asa and Brennah will be starting their 2nd year (grade 14 for all yaw that don't know) of college. Way to go kids! We are so proud.

Jack is recovering from vacation, (and all the other little kids in Hot Springs AR), and I am trying to catch up on work. Mom (Aunt Earnie) and Aint Aud are going to spend a couple days together while Uncle Bob is out of town. We gotta keep on eye on those two fiesty gals!

Jodi is stayin' busy like always, and Debbey stays busy looking for crazy pictures to post on this blog. Lawdy! as Jodi said, WHO gave her that photo software?????!!!

Hope everyone is doing well. Don't be shy to give us an update. There are lots of peekers on here, and it's always nice to read about what everyone is up to!
Love, Sandi

A BIRTHDAY QUIZ

She's all grown up now but maybe you can guess her age by her surroundings. Is that a T.V.? I think I saw that table at Target-what are they calling it now? Oh, yeah retro-Who is this charmer with a birthday today? She's sweet and bubbly-- likes a good laugh and is always busy with one thing or another-

Happy Birthday Kid We Luvs Ya!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

Happy Father's Day to all you wonderful Ladd Dad's!!!
