Holmes Reunion 2009

Jacob's family has a big reunion every June. It's a week-long event, with family arriving from out of state (Kansas & Indiana) to spend the week at Chickasaw State Park.
We have the (three-year-old) tradition of having Jacob's cousins Eric & Eva over to spend the night on Tuesday night.
Here they are decked out in hats, leaving for Josh's to play late-night rock band.

Wednesday is spent at the river, and the boat and seadoos go out. It's a big day, but I have no photos!
Saturday is the big finale with a potluck lunch.
My mom made this terry towel bib for Isaac and had her friend monogram it:
My first Holmes Reunion

Isaac checks out Uncle Don.

and gets some time in with Uncle Mack too.

and the great grandkids

Jacob's dad is one of 12 children, so it's a big family! Christian loves it - I think he enjoys being part of a big family; I guess he just loves people.
It's a fun reunion, and we look forward to it each year!
