Family Picnic


A fun time for all 
was had at
the annual Family Picnic,
this time held 
at Hidden Acres Mennonite Camp.
Bringing back memories of 
past Family events and good times
held at this very site.


Our nieces and nephews remembered
hockey games on the pond,
and delicious Turkey Dinners with 
Grandma and Grandpa at
Christmas time gatherings.


We rediscovered that
roasted wieners over an open wood fire
make a delicious hot dog and that a
simplified meal was a welcome change!





The Kettle Popcorn was super yummy
and the kids loved watching 
the process!








There were slides, forts, swings and 
wide open fields for the youngest
generation to enjoy.

Till next time ............ feeling blessed to be part of such a wonderful family and especially thankful (thanks Patrick) that our Becky happened to be home to be part of this event today!

  3. I love it when families can come together and hang out with no expectations. That's the best part of family...just some wieners, hotdogs, and popcorn. We do our popcorn in a similar way...it is so much fun. Just yesterday the little grands asked when we were going camping?
