Beckman Bed & Breakfast.

In October our family and the Kroeker family enjoyed a week-end getaway at the Beckman Bed and Breakfast! First class hospitality, let me tell you!
What a wonderful week-end of fun and fellowship! The Beckmans live in Lindsborg, KS. where Dad & Mom both attended College along with Mr. Beckman and Mrs. Kroeker. Lots of memories in that town!!

The week-end began with surprising our friend Mark Kroeker for his birthday. He celebrated a significant birthday, and we just managed to pull off the surprise!

Brad Beckman sang in an all-mens choir one evening. It was wonderful to listen to!
On Saturday the Hyllngsfest Festivities began starting with a parade!! The temperature was very, very cold but we enjoyed the parade none-the-less!!
Watching and keeping warm!

Gathering candy!

Tabitha, Elizabeth & Kelsey

Scott, Lydia & Will.

Esther & Will.
One of the floats had a basketball hoop on the back.

Where's Marcus????

There he is!!


It wouldn't be a parade without tootsie rolls!

Philip

Brrrrrr.........

Hot Chocolate to warm you up!!

Mmmm....

Susanna!

Our whole group!!!

Funnel cakes!!

Seth & Esther

Katy, Charity and Caroline

Lunch Time!

Despite the cold, the Beckman children participated in the swedish dancing!

Very cold!!
Later in the day, we had a great game of football!
While we big ones played, Silas and Paul had their own game.

Smiles.

Funny Faces.

Tackle!


"Off-sides!!"

Get the quarterback!!!

Finding the open receiver!

The whole group.
Thank-you Beckmans for a wonderful week-end!!
