Family Reunion


Top row left to right: Hunter, Jared, Conner, Ashlyn, Danika, Elle
Bottom row left to right: Tyler, Andrew, Adam, Mathew, Maquelle, Ethan

Michael's sister and all her kids came into town and so we got to have a family reunion. The brunettes belong to Michael's sister, the curlies are all ours and the rest of the blonds are Michael's brother's boys.


Elle wasn't sure what to make of all of it and was quite shy at first but she got into it with the rest of them by the end. Out of a current 13 grandchildren, only four are girls. It was quite rowdy with lots of yelling and running and a good time had by all. We had a few camera shy grown-ups, but I did sneak a few good pictures of them anyway.


My mother-in-law's neighbor's and long time friends were having a birthday party for their twin girls and she volunteered to cook ribs for both parties. It was....AWESOME! She cooked them at 300 for 3 hrs and then barbequed them on the grill. I've always boiled them first, but these turned out super tender. Wow!

Aimee: Add captions to the picture and tell us who's who. Everyone's grown up so quickly, all I recognize are your kids and Danika.

Thanks! Wow! Kids grow fast, don't they? When I left California, everyone was still little. What a nice looking bunch.
