Family Reunion

Our Great-Grandmother on our Mommy's side of the family

celebrated her 80th birthday with her 8 children and their families. 

We went to NY and stayed with Gud (Great-Uncle Drew)

and Grauntie (Great-Auntie Janet.)

They live in the country.

I'm picking wild strawberries.

I can pop them right into my mouth.

I also picked blackberries and currants.

 I loved pounding in the croquet stake.

 I threw the pollino for bocci with Daddy, Grampa, and Aunt Sarah.
Grauntie is behind Daddy.

What's your next move?

Daddy and I are working out in Gud's garage attic.

 My aunts and uncles on my Daddy's side of the family were also at Chautauqua. 
I went fishing with my Sanchez cousin and

caught my first fish!  Wow!

 I, Elena, stuck closer to people.

I'm with Great-Grama, Grama, and Aunt Sarah.

 Here Kitty, Kitty, Kitty!

 Nothing more refreshing on a warm humid day.

 With Aunt Sarah

 and Grampa

This is a great place!

My cousin Alex and her family have at house at

Chautauqua Institute so we went for a visit.

With Grauntie Janet

I'm in Bestor Plaza with Great-Grama and Grama

and Daddy and Mommy!

We all took at walk to Chautauqua Lake in the rain.

Agua!

 Elena went into the water.  I built sand castles. 

 At the Party Great-Grama is surrounded by most of her

grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Can you find us?

 I made this super hero cape at the Children's Museum.

 

 A refreshing afternoon

 at the park

Making cupcakes with Grama. 

I love to walk on beams

and tricky steps.

 Hi Goat!

OK, I won't spray into the neighbor's yard.

 I'm now old enough to appreciate Winnie the Pooh.

So Grama and I are playing Pooh Sticks at the Bayou. 

 I think mine is ahead.

Another great week with Grama and Grampa!

With Elena in June

 Hi Grampa!  You're here again!

 Let's read.

 What a great book.

 Grama made the giraffe dress for me

On the giraffe on the Merry-Go-Round at the zoo. 

Playing at the Tot Spot

 and in the Tippity Top.

 

 I love to swing.

 Hi Grama!

 I'm fearless in water.  So refreshing. 

 This is a great play ground.

 Looking toward the future.

 Wow!  Goats!  No fear here.

And a doggie!

Judah and I are enjoying America's Funniest Videos. 

 

Ready for bed.
