Family Reunion

We got back late yesterday from the family reunion. I spent most of the time quietly observing how everyone was behaving. Harvey's family has a lot of latent sibling rivalry, which shouldn't have surprised me, but did.



This is a picture of Harveys family.
They are all standing in front of the hall that was reserved for the occasion. The food was great especially the pulled pork on Saturday night.


On Friday night we set up camp and then went off to Harvey's sisters for a BBQ supper.



This is a picture of the three people who travelled the farthest.


Nathan, Cindy and baby Audrey came all the way from Ottawa to join us.

More pictures tomorrow, I am still tired out! Must be getting too old for this kind of thing.

Well off to visit you all. Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.

  3. Jackie,

    Watching people is very interesting. You can learn a lot by just observing.

    Beautiful family photo and I'm glad that the Ottawa residents could make it. Sounds like a great time.
