LB Reunion 2012

This last weekend we had a family reunion in my hometown.  A little on the warm side, but still a good time.  This year the gathering was held at the home of uncle G and Aunt K.   Festivities started June 29^th with the main event on Saturday June 30^th. 

Friday brought the arrival of most of the out of town folks.  There were burgers, hotdogs, and beverages for anyone who joined in along with some volley ball and I think a little horse shoe practice.   Cousin H  put together a slide show with pictures from past reunions and family shots, while cousin S provided the vocals.  We hope to add to the show in coming years. 

Saturday brought everyone out to the house for lunch.   There was brisket, beans, salads and desserts.  After lunch the horse shoe teams were picked and the bracket was put together.  This year 1^st, 2^nd, and 3^rd place trophies were beautiful wood carvings.   There were kiddie pools set up in the back yard for the little ones to swim in.

The horse shoe tournament was a heated affair, both literally and figuratively speaking, so when the water guns came out and a little water fight started no one seemed to mind.

A few people played a little volleyball and threw washers.  My Dad and his partner cousin M took second place.    

Thank You G and K for the use of their home and for everyone who helped make this year a success.  We really appreciate everything that you do.
