This post is mostly for me, everyone else might find it a little boring. The Couch family had a busy weekend. Don and Sarah came up for Grandma Elva's estate sale on Saturday and then they stayed until Sunday for Uncle Sherm's Party! I was dreading going to Grandma's Sale, but wouldn't have missed it for anything. I was very sad when we were cleaning out Grandma's house and when I walked into an empty home I had to stand there and cry for a minute. Seeing Grandpa and Grandma's house like that was a strange feeling. The memories that we all have shared there will forever be with us, but we now will only have pictures to remind us of the little details. There will not be a holiday that goes by that I won't think of going to Grandma and Grandpa's!
Okay, enough of the emotional crap. I have to say that it was a fun day at the auction. A lot of us showed up and had a good time. As Tom Taylor put it, it was fun hanging out with all of us and not being at a funeral. For those of you that were not able to make it, here is a little list of the attendees:
Mom and Dad, Don and Sarah, Cody, Myself, Ellie, Taten, Emma, Uncle Jim, Aunt Cheryl, Julie, Terry, Taylor, Bodee, Uncle Sam and Aunt Chris, Zane and Stacey and their 8 children, sorry can't list all of their names, Tom and Jeanine Taylor, Jane Taylor even came for a little while. Did I forget anyone? I hope not, but it was a good day and I feel like us cousins had a good time bidding together to outbid other people for Grandma's stuff. I had to take some final pictures of everything before it sold. Here is a little trip down memory lane...
Cute Taylor didn't mind being my model. I didn't want this couch and had no where to put it, but I didn't want it to go to just anyone. I was glad to know that Zane bought it and is putting it in his girls room. It will be cute and is very comfy!!!
Lime green is definately back in!
Ellie's shoes match!
Had to put all the kids on this couch one more time!!!
The auction crowd!
Aunt Chris and I felt a little bad about the fact that our old highchairs went for $1 for both!
One last stand on the good ole round table! Zane bought this table!
On Sunday we celebrated Uncle Sherm's Heart Transplant Anniversary. He has had his new heart for 14 years now! Aunt Dee had us all over to the Rupert Pizza Hut for Pizza and Cake!
The Couch siblings, well 5 of them anyway!
It was fun to spend time with both sides of the family all in one weekend!

Thanks for sharing the pictures of both events. I hate missing all the family fun. I have to cry too about Grandma's stuff. And those cute high chairs going for $1. How sad when to us they are worth a million memories. I wonder how many different babies sat there butts in those chairs? Way to go Uncle Sherm!!!!!
