The Official Richards Family Blog

This is something that I'm so excited about. When I first started doing the Richards Cookbook I didn't expect the positive response that I would get from everyone. It's been so long since everyone has gotten together that I felt something should be done! So done it shall.....A Blog! (It made sense in my head until I said it out loud and I'm not taking it back) Who doesn't like a good blog now and then?!? I dare you to tell me who!

Announcing the First Ever Richards Family Blog!

What I'm hoping is that the Richards Family can keep more in contact with each other or at least keep an undated address! That's not to much is it?!? If nothing more it can give people a fun trip down Memory Lane.

We're a crazy bunch that like to have fun!

Some of us are normal....but we still don't have an accurate count!

I hope that everyone enjoys this as much as I enjoyed putting it together!

Richards Family Reunion

I've been putting together a Richards Cookbook for the past couple of months. What a pain! But it's been so fun talking to family members that I probably wouldn't have ever talked to. I love to cook and the Richards family are great cooks--seriously!

I've been scanning in pictures of the Richards Reunions for the past couple of days. When i say I love looking at pictures--I mean it! I'm putting together a Richards Family Blog so that everyone can enjoy the pictures and hopefully more of us can stay in contact!

I have so many good memories of the Richards Reunions. They were week long at Camp Christie in Charles City, IA. There were crafts, canoe rides, water fights, games, horseshoes, golfing, laughing and catching up!!

What I love most about being a Richards is the ability to laugh and have fun and to cook!

Home Again!

We're back from Iowa :( It was fun, it was humid, and it was too short!

Here are the pics from the trip.........

On the plane

We love Grandpa!

We love Grandma!

Tori is terrified of bugs and she sees a fly and thinks it's a bee. She's telling my Grandma all about it!

Heading back to Iowa--we're going to miss everyone!

Minneapolis Airport

Can't wait to see Daddy!

Iowa Here We Come

We're heading off to Iowa this morning! My family is about to experience the bundle of energy that we call Tori. They aren't going to know what's about to hit em! It's going to be a long day but I can't wait to see my Family!

1 day Only!!

2 days to go!

3 days away!

Iowa in 4 days!!!!

My Uncle Keith sent me these pictures this weekend and since I'm going to be traveling to Iowa in 4 days I thought it was the perfect time to post them!

These pictures were taken in front of my parents apartment in Minneapolis before they went to see Fiddler on the Roof.

This picture was taken in front of my Grandparents house on Gill Street. I loved that house with the Weeping Willow Tree and the Strawberry patch!

If there's one thing I love--it's looking at pictures!!
