Reunions

I love summer time and reunion time. For our Beck reunion we went to Harris Pond. I love it here mostly because the kids love it here. There is boating, canoeing, kiddie train, zip line, and a fun little area for the little tots.
One thing I've noticed at our family reunion is when we eat the Garrard's sit by the Garrard's the Jones' by the Jones' and the Frank Beck family by the Frank Beck family. It takes everyone a little while to warm up and reach out of their bubble to go out and visit with other family members.


The kiddie train was enjoyed by all ages. Even Grandma. The other day I went over to Grandma Bernice's and I couldn't find her anywhere. Her car was in the garage so I went in the house and looked everywhere (kind of scary when someone is 90 years old) I called Sandy to see if she knew where she was but she didn't know. I went home and kept calling, finally Bernice answered, I said, "where have you been?" She said she had been home all day but she was out sweeping the shop because it was so dirty. She is amazing. I hope I can remain active and alert like her.
Check off one family reunion and get ready for the next.

I love that Grandma has a death grip in the train and in the canoe. I guess I would too, if dad were the one paddling the canoe. I never could trust him when he said, "Trust me, it is perfectly safe. You won't even get wet.".... sure dad... sure.
