Last Family Gathering for Summer 2010

Labor Day Weekend - September 2010 -We had 10 adults and 15 children (all but one under 12) visit.
Even though Fall has fallen on the Pacific Northwest, most of the children and one adult (me) went swimming in the lake.  We did hang out more in the hot tub than the lake.
Playing the the sand is always fun.

Picking blackberries after a "Hansel & Gretel walk in the woods.  We have a maze of trails that interconnect so we walk for awhile before someone tries to find the way home.  Even though we wander around in circles sometimes, we always find our way home.

What is a family gathering without some posed pictures?
Most of the kids - some napping.

All 15 children - mostly looking at the camera.
And here are some individual pictures:

  2. Indeed what beautiful kids - big ones as well as the little ones. You did a good job along the way. I love that Charlize is holding your beer while you snap the pictures.

    Looking forward to seeing ya'll soon.

  3. Well,Bobbie, that DOES look like beer, and she does look like she has been drinking beer, but actually it is old fashioned root beer. :)
