Long ago, in July, Andy and Marcus came back a day early from Boy Scout camp so we could have them immediately unpack and repack and get in the car to go to Grammy Pammy's reunion extravaganza. Everyone was going to be there, everyone. 22 people. 11 adults, 11 kids. 12 boys, 10 girls. We came from Illinois, Iowa, Texas, Indiana and Georgia. Even Joe's girlfriend and her mother drove up with Joe to experience July near St. Louis. We spent 5 days at Grammy Pammy's in July. For one of those days, the entire family was together. Crazy. Busy. Fun. We all took photos. Here are some of mine from the all-together day.
Welcome to the family fun!
The water slide was a big hit. My kids got cooked playing outside all day.
Just hanging around.
Time to eat! There was so much food! I did no calorie counting that weekend.
Look at these cookies. Courtney's friend made them. First, they look amazing. Second, they tasted great. Grammy was wise to portion some out for every day or they would have been gone at once.
Afternoon time=game time=Ticket to Ride time. Ethel, the game newby wiped the board of everyone else. Andy, only made one person (Cale) cry. A good time overall.
Cousins.
Found a snake.
Time for corn hole.
Eric supervised the fish fry.
Maddie carted around the littles.
My attempt to capture a pretty sunburst.
The Spielman sibs-in backwards order. Plus Kinley, who couldn't handle being left out.
A nice pic of Jim, Courtney and the boys.
One of my favorite on-the-fly pics. Courtney chasing Jacob almost down the street. At least Jacob wasn't streaking...
The cruising buddies-Joe, Ethel, Mom and Annie Ruth
Lanny and Mom
And Ethel and Joe.
