Family reunion

On Saturday, we had a family reunion up in Huntsville that was the last Hurrah! of our vacation. The only sucky part was - we had planned to go up Friday night and camp in the area, but they called for thunderstorms so we stayed home and just went for the day Saturday instead. And the weather was PERFECT on Friday! Oh well.

Back to Saturday. It was a great day up at Mark's Uncle Gary & Aunt Maybeth's home. There was lots to do - tubing, canoeing, fishing, jet skiing, swimming and so on. The beach was perfect for kids with a very shallow sand bottom. My girls had the time of their lives with heaps of cousins around to play with.

Here are just a few photos from a very fun day!

The whole gang of us...



Mark's two sisters Aidan and Erinn along with Erinn's daughter Aydra on the tube (love Aydra's face!)



My mother-in-law and Mark's cousin Ceilidh on the tube



Some of the older kids canoeing



My father-in-law taking a much deserved break



Mark's brother Richard and his daughter Naiya



Eventually you'll meet all my nieces and nephews - it may take awhile as it is always increasing - but let me introduce you to the lovely Miss Naiya. (Sept. 22 Mark's little sister Kate is getting married - all the nieces and nephews are in the wedding party so there will be heaps of pics then!)



Madi LOVES the water and her new thing is swimming underwater. Here's my fish emerging for air.
