Reunion

Peek-a-Boo with Louisa

 Anna at the pool. We were at the pool a lot this summer. 

 Calvin Stewart

 Angelina Burdge

This little girl is so sweet. I really enjoyed watching for a few days this summer while Tally and Eric moved. She is easy to love.

 I think Eliza could be a model.

 Tawny says she gets this face from Aubree now and then. She's given to me a few times as well. It cracks me up.

 Eliza spent time with the little girl cousins.

 And off the swing!

 The red kids at the Botanical Gardens

 This roller-type slide was hugely popular.

 Trace

 Elena before her birthday party. Pretty girl.

 Julianna Burdge at the pool

 Angelina only wanted Trace at the pool. 

 Sophie and Maren at the Zoo

Maren ready for marching band practice 

Julianna is a beautiful child, isn't she?

 We never did get all the cousins in one picture. This is pretty good try though. Many children there...

Sometimes we just stopped and stared somewhat in awe of all the children we've got between us. It was overwhelming at times. And that's not even all the grandchildren. Now Trista and Darin have six! They've now got the rest of us beat. 

Preston looks like a bored teenager in this picture. "Seriously? More pictures?"

These misting fans are a life-saver sometimes. St. Louis is HOT!

We went to the City Garden with Trace and the rest of the family. The water feature was pretty nice!

 They always have to sit on these.

Botanical Gardens again. What a great place.
