My cousin Jordan and his sweet little family came to stay with us while they were in the area for a wedding. We were trying to remember the last time we saw each other, and we're thinking it may have been our wedding. He was just a kid way back then, but he's grown up very nicely! Jordan's wife's name is Carly, so this was a little confusing for my daughters Jordyn and Carlee! But we managed.
We spent one day at the lake together, so these pictures are all from that day.
Jas, Jenna, Carlee and Jordyn checking out the surf.
Katia - so fashionable in matching shirt and shades!
Gramma and Grampa with little second cousins - Adrien and Mackenzie. They loved the umbrella.
Jordan getting his kids all safe - Kristian and Adrien . . .
. . . so they can go out boating.
Our goofy girls!
Here's our picnic area - sun and shade to please everyone!
Rich talking with his parents, my mom talking with Carly and my dad sneaking up behind Carlee.
Those goofy girls again! Seriously though, they have so much fun together and are just a hoot to be around!
My dad and Jordan out in the rubber dingy.
Rich and I trying to steal a romantic moment.
Didn't work!
Katia using her hair to clean the slide so her clothes won't get dirty!
Five of my girls at the playground.
Watch out Carlee!!!
Mackenzie just loves to be in the playground with her sisters.
Those goofy girls and their lovely hair.
Too cute - Adrien and Mackenzie ready for church.
It was so much fun to reconnect with Jordan and his family. Makes me yearn to attend a family reunion on my dad's side of the family. They have informal gatherings every summer but it's always been so far away. I've got lots of cousins I hardly know! I think it's time to fix that!!!
