Family Reunion Time

Both of Greg's parents come from large Kansas families (Grammie Barbara is one of 15 and GRon is one of 8) and both sides are really good about getting together each year for a family reunion. The siblings take turns hosting, everyone brings food, and it is a great time to catch up. Not that we would have tried, but there was no way we were getting out of going this year. Actually, I think both sides would have been just fine if only Grace showed up. She was definitely the star.

The Ernzen family reunion took place at Alan Schuler's family's renovated barn in late May.

Here is Grace with Greg's cousin Renee.

And Renee's grandson Peyton and GRon.

Greg's 2nd cousin Ashley and her son Peyton, all the way in from Rhode Island. By the way, Peyton is 2 months younger than Grace.

Great Aunt Patsy holding Grace.

The Arb family reunion was held at Melvern Lake in early June.

Grammie Barbie's neice Deanna and her granddaugter who is a few months younger than Grace.

Barbara's sisters and brother. I think these are the only ones still living. At one time there were 9 boys!

Dee, Shirley, Bernice, Norma, Wilma and Barbara.

We look forward to next year's get togethers when Gracie will be walking and trying to talk.
