Our family gathering this past weekend was
awesome just a way too short! We were
blessed with sunny warm weather, actually got through the whole weekend without
a rain shower, now in Alberta
that is just not normal! Family started
arriving Thursday evening, more on Friday then the rest on Saturday. With immediate family, extended family and a
couple of friends we numbered 16, some camped for the weekend and others just
visited for the day on Saturday. Thursday
evening we gathered at our site around the campfire then Friday and Saturday we
mostly gathered at Tracy and Keith’s campsite, all cooking our own thing and
visiting. We had a potluck Saturday evening
and gathered around the big general campfire for the evening and those that
camped gathered in the shelter for brunch on Sunday morning. Sunday comes so fast, just never enough time
for visiting but seeing everybody for a short time is better than not seeing
them at all. We will see more of our kids and grandkids
that live close but not the case for those who live a greater distance. We really do have an awesome family even if I
do say so myself! Our second
granddaughter will be off to England in
August if all goes according to plan, she plans on spending a couple of
years working and travelling in Europe,
part of me says “no you cannot do that” then the other part says “good on ya,
go for it”. We truly do hope all works
out as Dani really wants to go, she promised to keep in touch through Skype and
email, etc. I guess we will have to
learn how to “Skype”!
