Every year Bob's family has a reunion in the beginning of September. Bob's brother Tom has a beautiful property and always hosts us. Bob has 3 brothers and 2 sisters and they were all there, along with quite a few nieces and nephews. Laura and Aaron and girls were able to come, Heather and Andrew didn't come as it was held 2 weeks after Connor was born, so they weren't quite ready for an outing like this.
This cute artwork was done by Tom and Bonnie's granddaughter and was hanging in their garage, where we were gathering to eat.
We all brought something to share, and the guys grilled some brats.
After supper the girls and some cousins went to explore the woods.
Some of my sister-in-laws and I decided to take a walk around the woods too.
It's always nice to connect with family and we had such a nice time doing that.

That looks like fun. Beautiful property! Love the look of the rustic chairs and what a good idea to place chairs and signs on their walking trails.
This looks like a wonderful place! And Tom is a very good carpenter. Everyone looks so happy, and having such a good time. They have everything covered...fire pit, woods, games. What else could you want?
What a nice reunion! I love the rustic chairs Bob has made. What a lovely piece of property you have. It's so cool that you live close to family and have these wonderful reunions!
What a wonderful reunion!
It sounds like a perfect blend of family bonding, delish food, and beautiful nature.
Love those rustic chairs .
The glowing bracelets and necklaces sound like a fun touch for the kids.
Happy Monday, Mari!
It must have been a nice time with family and the forest looks inviting with the wooden chairs. I would love to sit by an outside fire, so cool 👍
Sounds like a fun day.
Like the idea of the rustic benches and signs along the walk in the woods.
It sounds as if working with wood runs in Bob's family. It's so wonderful to be with family who love the Lord. Glad you had a great day!
I am so jealous in a good way - if possible. I loved it. I wish we had something like that in our family. You need to always go. The land is gorgeous. Gosh he had a big family. I LOVE that tree!
It makes me so happy to read about family reunions!! How fun that you can all get together like that and I've never seen a cleaner garage!! That is such a beautiful place to gather! Thanks for sharing your reunion with us, Mari!! xo
What a delightful party! I like the "Grace in Speech" sign by the bench on your walk. What a great idea!
That looks like such a happy, relaxed group of kinfolks. I sure hope that Tom does not use that sawmill to saw that gorgeous old gnarled tree to bits. That thing has such character! I do love old trees.
I grew up on a wooded piece of property and spent many hours exploring and having fun with cousins, while the grown up sat by the pool or on the deck and chatted it up. Thanks for bringing back some really fun memories!
That looks like so much fun!
Looks like fun! I miss having our family reunions. We stopped the year of covid and never started back again. Janice

Yes, it is nice to connect with family.
I enjoyed seeing your photographs and the glowing bracelets and necklaces look good.
