We have a number of family reunions this summer and this is the first one. The RIEHLS are such a fun bunch of good people!!!! My dad and his siblings ALWAYS invite every single person to all their gatherings! We drove to a small camping area with a pavilion and pond and ball diamond! We've been here often and this was perfect weather for a two day reunion!
My parents were in charge of the food on Monday night. As soon as the food was ate the rook cards came out! Ballgames were played and Austin was having a blast!
Cousins were there along with a lot of other extended relatives that Ausin didn't know. Mike was out of town and missed out. The kids were sure that the green pond water was warmer than the tempts outside and after a swim, they gathered around the campfire to warm up and sip on hot meadow tea!
We went home to sleep but came back for day two. So many ballgames were played and Austin loved playing second base and my Uncle JR played first base. His loud voice and encouragement to all the batters was fun for Austin to see. JR is a fun man and he made Austin feel right at home, amongst many Amish relatives. The pond water looks like slime but the kids loved it! The food was good!!!!
Tuesday night, we ate supper together and then Ashlyn played some spike ball with her extended family friends!
The Riehl's are a lively bunch and so fun! This was a great two days spent with family!
