Joe and I were married in 1981 here in Salt Lake City, Utah. At the time Joe had a job that was in Pennsylvania. I moved back to that area with him for awhile.
Our first home was an apartment in Hatfield, Pa. We went to the Jarrettown ward.
Susan was born in 1982.
In 1983 we moved to Quakertown, where we had a cute townhouse. We were in the Doylestown Branch which later became the Doylestown Ward.
Our son Aaron was born in 1985. Then in 1987 we move to Utah.
Sarah was our only child born in Utah. That was in 1989 (she's our youngest)
Here the party was breaking up and we had started to put chairs and tables away:

On the right is Ken Knight and on the left is Kelly Clark. I like this picture because we bumped into Kelly and Lisa at the Clark family reunion in Farmington recently. I didn't know until then that we are distant cousins. We both come from Ezra T. Clark and Mary Stevenson Clark. He comes through Joseph Smith Clark (what a name) and I come through Mary Elizabeth (the only daughter).
If you want to see more on the Clark reunion, I've got that on my blog just a few posts back.
It's interesting to see people after 22 years. I noticed a lot of gray hair. In other cases the hair was just gone. Back then our children were just toddlers (or not born yet). Now many of those children have finished college. Some of them are making more money than we are!
Enough about that; I'm starting to make myself feel old.
I should have taken a picture of the food table. There was so much food! Tomorrow at lunch time I'll be wishing I could have some of it!

It was good to see some of the old gang, Lesa did a good job mentioning many of the dates and friends.
A few others were Winnie Loveless and her daughter Katie who now live in Cody WY, Nick Hagan who lives in Mesa and Adam Carlini who returned from his mission while we were in Doylestown. Adam and his family live in Peoria, AZ, on the oft chance Susan ever meets a Carlini, say hi and wonder why?
As I now look back there are fond memories of many good friends, included the Hopkins Family, Nancy and John, Harry and Phyills Ollis, the Hubers, the Brule's... some of whom have passed on however they all were and continue to be good friends in our hearts.
I raise the Ebenezer to these memories and to the Doylestown legacy!
