Jerry, John and Grayson. Three of the cutest Grandkids you'll ever find!
This part of the Family came to the United States in 1951 from Amsterdam, Netherlands. My parents, Miep and John Theuns, came to start a new life and along the way added to our family. Carrie, Beverly and Audrey were born into the family when we lived in Detroit.
A Clan gathering
Recently, on July 9th and 10th to be precise, we had a mini family get together on Pickwick Lake. Becky and I hosted Donald and Cindy Melancon (BIL and SIL), Tressa and Charlie Baggett (Niece & husband) and their kids Abigail, Lillian, Cecilia, and Madeleine, along with our Daughter and our son-in-law, Jennifer and Derek Davenport, and our grandson Grayson and also Michael and Katie's son, our grandson Jerry. We had a great time boating and swimming on those hot, sultry days. On the last day the kids, all except Grayson who had to go home earlier, met and feed the ducks, fish and turtles. A wonderful end to a wonderful visit.
Grayson Davis Davenport joins the Theuns Family
Last night, Tuesday August 18th at 12:36 AM, our newest Grandson, Grayson Davis Davenport joined our family. He weighed 8 lbs 6 oz and was 21" long. Jennifer (now called Mom) and Derek (now called Dad) and Grayson are all doing well, outside of the sleep deprivation and are anxious to go home to become the tremendous family they are meant to be. 3 Cheers. HIP, HIP, Hooray!

Meet "Phish Food"
Becky and I go to San Antonio for Valentine's Day 02/12/09
Becky and I visited with Randy and Pam Baker and they shared various San Antonio sites with us. Like this one, the Mission San Jose. Pam and Randy are old friends from our current neighborhood, Woodlawn Village. They moved to San Diego CA about 3 years ago and then "retired" and moved to San Antonio in July 2008. We enjoy visiting with them since they are great people and they live in very interesting places too.
We also visited the San Antonio River Walk

Jennifer and Derek get married - October 25, 2008
Well, my daughter Jennifer got married to Derek Davenport on October 25, 2008 at Bonne Terre Country Inn in Nesbit, Mississippi. It was a wonderful weather day as well as a wonderful celebration day.
Everything pretty much went exactly as planned. Jennifer was as pretty as ever and Derek was handsome. We had lots of company from out of town from both families and because of that we had a great time visiting after the actual wedding.
