We held our first annual Eylander family reunion (my dad's side) on August 7th and it went very well. There was of course good food, but far better than that there was geat company! The Eylanders know how to laugh - needless to say we all left with tight stomaches and sore cheeks! Gracie had such a GREAT time playing with her older cousins - it was so hard for her to say goodbye!
Can you believe these two are only 3 months apart in age?...
Such a difference in size!
Then on Friday, August 12th we drove to Coupeville to spend the night with some of my Eveland relatives. We stayed up late with my brother Andrew and his girlfriend Emily playing the game 'Quelf'... it was a lot of fun! :) The next day we spent time with all of our Eveland relatives at the 5th annual Eveland Family Reunion.
Below is a picture of just my immediate family with significant others, minus my brother Allen and his.
As usual Gracie thoroughly enjoyed playing with her 2nd cousin Remedy.
I'd have to say Gracie's favorite part of the day was kayaking with daddy and uncle Andrew.
Such good people I have in my life... I am so grateful for my family ties.
