Family Reunion in Bad Axe, MI

Last weekend we had a family 'cousins' reunion in Bad Axe as my Papa Don called it. The cousins started planning a family reunion with our close relatives on my mom's side and this was our second year. This year we did a hog roast, had swimming, go-cart rides, bonfires, wine tasting, fireworks, and a pond for the kids to catch frogs. I imagine that family reunions can't get much better than that.

I took a lot of pics and had fun playing with my new camera. Here are a few of my favorites from the weekend. Is it crazy to wish I took more pictures? I feel like I had my camera with me everywhere, but there were faces I missed.....b u m m e r!

Wish Papa Don could've been there. It has been only 3 months since he passed away. It was great to see everybody and so glad that my kids and Richie were there this year.
