Get together in Paton, Iowa


Believe it or not, this was the best photo I got of all 6 grandchildren at the get together Saturday 10/4 at Erin and Jeff's home in Paton, Iowa. You should see some of the other ones!!!
Left to right are: Nayra Lujano, Ethan Ackerson, Jaiden Ackerson, Mica Pedersen, Ellen's daughter Jenn, Mason Ackerson, and Rio Lujano.
I can't remember the last time all 6 were together. It was FUN to have them all there and watch them play together. Hopefully we can do something like this again soon. The weather was nice and we were able to go to the city park with Mica, Mason Jaiden and Ethan. That was fun on the play equipment. Rio and Nayra weren't able to get there til 4:30 or so. We really appreciated Heather/Pedro's and Jenn' effort to drive a lot of miles to get to little Paton!
I think all had a great time. Jeff grilled steak, brats and hot dogs. Nobody left the table hungry!
DISH Network today!!!
3 days without satellite is too long! DirecTV toyed around with us at our anniversary date...offering a whopping $5 off as incentive to continue. Our enticing sign up benefits were lapsing, so our bill was going to go up 40%. When we later called up to disconnect, all of a sudden they were able to reduced the bill to an amount LOWER than we were paying!!! Too bad, so sad. Dish is still $5 less than that. Kind of a stupid way to run a business. We are hoping Dish isn't that whacky.
