Here we are together!!!!

For the first time in years the Sugiyama family of 8 was together in one space for one fast paced, fun packed weekend.  The miracle weekend started with dad and I planning to attend little Paxton's blessing and then Lori and Casey decided to jump in- super nice!!   When I realized that Tosh was attending a wedding in SLC the day before Lori's departure, I challenged him to cut one more day of class and join us.  He was in.  Next, I minimized the  fact that Annette was moving the day we would return by saying "you don't have to pack, and you don't have to clean"... so as dad said... I guilted her in (yeah... I am not too proud).  When Tad decided to return from South America prematurely, he didn't even have a choice... but was simply picked up at the SLC airport and swept off to Denver.  Then ... the toughest nut to crack... Tim...got encouragement from Kat, decided to make a bold move, cover his work, and hopped into a full car to drive 19 hours and complete the family.  To everyone I say "thanks for making my day"... or should I say weekend!   I will post a series of photos and segments separately but wanted to get this one on right away.  LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!! THANKS for all the miles driven, hospitality shown, and sacrifices made to make me the happiest mom in the world.
