Reunion Day!

Well our clan got up around the usual time and after getting dressed for the day headed right to the pond again. I had to cajole some food into them, then it was right back into swim suits and the water again. The day was bit more overcast, with slight chances of rain, but that would not deter us from swimming or having fun. Family started arriving shortly after and everyone got comfortable with chairs, swim suits, bug spray, sun block, snacks, cameras, video recorders, more hugs, tents for more shade, food & drinks, and joy to see how big all the kids looked now. We ate, played in the water, rode the dune buggy, had some water fights, flipped family off their water floats, talked, ate more good food, looked for turtles and fish, had a short rainfall, and just had a general great time. I know I was exhausted by the time night fell and the evening ended with a big campfire put on by Donnie. Clyde did make a listing of all the family and friends who attended...I don't recall the exact number but I want to say it was the biggest event so far and we had up to 60+ in attendance. You can try and count all the people in the family reunion photo (if you wish), I do know that we did miss a few people. We love all of you and can't wait to see you in Texas? Is that right? We may want to reconsider a summer reunion as I don't know if many of you can survive the heat out here. We will be in touch. The whole family, Grandpa Johnson with some of the grandchildren, Clyde with his boys (I do have to say I got the cutest one in the picture) and Mary Ann and her kids & grandchildren.
