Family Reunion

This past weekend we traveled with the Tribble clan to Nathalie, VA for a family reunion.  The reunion was for the Saunders' side, which was the maiden name of Craig's grandmother on his father side.  Mawmaw passed away almost three years ago.  

We started out Sunday morning around 10am, heading north, following Craig's cousin and his family since they knew the way.  We arrived around lunch and had a really nice time.  There was soooo much food, like at any family reunion.  Leah had a blast playing with her cousins and Ya-Ya (this is what Leah calls Craig's mother).  The location was a volunteer fire department out in the boonies.  Anyways, we ate and talked and visited.  Leah and Anna were able to meet their great-great Aunt Minnie, who is Mawmaw's sister.  We are blessed to have a large extended family, even if we aren't able to see them very often.  We left around 2pm and got home before 4, in time for dinner and relaxation before the weekend was over.

Anna was so good the entire trip.  Both girls did really well.  Nick and Laura's daughter, Maiya loved the baby and wanted to hold her.  Maiya is a very sweet girl and I see my daughters, in the future, looking up to and admiring their older cousin.

Leah played outside most of the time and the temperature was in the low 90's.  You can see her face is red and she was drenched with sweat.  We blasted the AC on the way home and she guzzled water and drifted off for a nap.  We had a really great time and hope to do more fun things with our cousins!
