Yesterday I felt like we had been let out of the cage.
We were invited to a reunion of many of the people from our former church. There has been an exodus from the church in San Francisco to living here in the greater Sacramento Valley area.
Many of us because of children moving here. A lot of us were active in choir and small singing groups. We had a potluck and music to be enjoyed.
There were 30 wonderful friends eating around multiple tables.
Friends that are like family....
We came to that church in the very early 1980's, and have remained close friends ever since.
I didn't get many photos and those I got weren't so hot but they are memories for me.
I know my daughter in law took some group photos which I will hopefully get copies later.
We are definitely a "family" of Huggers.
I really felt like Christmas had finally come. It was so wonderful to sit and sing the carols with such grand music.
My heart is full.

Oh what a wonderful time! I'm so glad you were both well and able to go, blessed time with family and friend!
Hurray! I totally cherish friends who feel like family. That song, "Oh, Holy Night" is my all-time favorite.
Steve listening so intently to what his dad is saying touches my heart.
You sound so happy! Relieved actually. I am glad that you and Dave got to go and see so many of your past friends. looks like fun!
It sounds like a wonderful reunion of old friendships. I can see how you would feel so good after being cooped up. You’re FREE!
You got wonderful photos that really show the feeling of all the old friends!
I think your photos are perfect. What a wonderful day this must have been.

So glad you were both well and able enough to go to this reunion...it makes me feel all warm and glowing just to hear about it!
Oh Sue, it doesn''t get any better than that, visiting with old friends and sharing our lives together. Loved the pictures, and Dad and son are looking more alike..the bald heads. HaHa
How nice! Making more precious memories. Love the pics. I think a lot of folks are seeing the handwriting on the wall about California. Get out now while you still can. I wouldn't put it past Newsom to lock up Christians next or try to. He's an evil man.
God bless. Merry CHRISTmas! 😊
What a wonderful reunion.
Merry Christmas to you and Dave!
