Every two years my dad's family gets together for a reunion. We've tried different places in the last 10 years but my cousin Jennifer found us a gem this year and it's just right across the lake from our family's lakehouse at Lake Martin, AL! The lakehouse is much too small for everyone to be there together. This place was a lodge and had 12 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms with a huge kitchen, living room and play areas for the kids . That gives every family their own bedroom and bathroom! We liked it so much that we've decided to do it every year here, not every 2 like we've been doing!
This is the front of the lodge
And the gorgeous view of Lake Martin from the deck
There were lots of games played
The living room was perfect for gymnastics practice. Yes, that is Cappy doing a headstand! She had to show everyone up with her great yoga skills!
CeCe can do one too!
These two.....!
Mark brought his tube from Houston (and his boat, but the day before everyone got there his boat broke down!) We had a BLAST on the tube!! Yes, that's Papaw Ruff out there with Greta, CeCe and Jasper!
Greta, Jude, CeCe, Bryce and Jasper
Alexia, Jennifer and I got in on the action and loved it!
The teenagers were great to play with the little kids. We spent hours swimming and playing off the dock.
Glow stick fun!
Soccer here and Rod and Jack brought a badminton set that the kids (and adults!) loved too.
The last night my dad and his 3 brothers sang some beautiful songs for us, then we all sang hymns together. Love that about my family!
Here is the crew that stayed the weekend. We were missing a few (Anthony couldn't come!) but hopefully next year everyone can be there!
