Family Reunion at my parents house

In July we had a family reunion with my father's siblings in my parents backyard.  It was so much fun to get together with everyone, get caught up on each others' busy lives, and see how the kids are growing up.

My cute sister!

...and her husband!

And the little kids enjoyed going on the merry-go-round.   Just like I used to do when I was much younger. (you know, a month ago...hee, hee).

Look at my brother and his cute son!  This son really loves his daddy.

I love this picture.  My aunt and cousin are enjoying a laugh together. (I wonder what they are laughing about)?

Look at that smile!

This is my cousin and her daughter.  I can't believe that my cousin has a daughter old enough to start college this fall.  Both of these ladies are awesome and I'm glad they are part of my family.

Here's a picture with the ladies!

I like this picture of my cousin and his son.

And me!  (Thanks to my cousin's wife for taking the camera and getting a photo of me.  Usually I take all the photos and don't get many of myself).

I love this photo of my parents backyard and the sun setting in the west, causing the sun to hit Mount Timpanogus.  Beautiful!

This is the other side of the sunset.  I love the clouds and the colors.  I love sunsets.  I hope to live somewhere where I can see sunsets regularly.  I always took them for granted until they weren't there anymore.

My cousins wife took this photo of her husband, daughter and newborn son.  Isn't it an awesome photo?

My cousin and her cop husband.  My cousin in an author and is currently writing a couple books.  She also stays busy with two cute boys and a little girl. 

And we played some games and got to know each other a little bit better.  I think we need family reunions more often so that we can stay close as family.

Just had to show that SM was there, visiting with many family members, including my brother.

And the final photo is my niece...so beautiful and cute!
