At the Beach

One of the things we did during our reunion in June was to visit Bodega Bay and play in the sand and surf.  Adele wins the prize for bringing more than memories home.  I think we washed something like a cubic yard of sand from her hair.  But she, along with all the rest of us had loads of fun.  It blew the whole time we were there (naturally) but the sun came out for the last couple of hours, so we all caught some rays.  Here is a video of those who played in the water.  Still photos will follow in a subsequent post.

Reunion Time

Since our family from Indiana came to visit us in May we have had a lot of fun times with lots of family.  What a joy it has been to have them here around us for a time.  This post begins a series of posts that will highlight some of the delightful times we have had.  I cannot promise that they will be in any particular order - certainly not in chronological order.  The best I can hope for is that I will get to covering all the activities.  So to whet your appetite, here is a photo summary.

 Lots of Cousin Time

 Lots of Good Food Prepared by Excellent Chefs

 Great Grandma Time

And with the guy in the yellow shirt.

 Time at the Beach

 Cooling off in the pool.

 Time on the Throne.

 And standing around on mountain tops.

 Visiting where Jelly Bellies are born.

 Lots of Trains.

 A special visit to the Temple.

And - of course - Nap Time!

So that's just the beginning.  Stay tuned for more to come.
