Stop and enjoy the scenery

About two weeks ago, I went to my family reunion in a rural neck of the woods. It was delightful to spend time with the family, particularly the kids (I love the adults too, but let's be honest. It's hard to compete with an 18-month old with cute chubby cheeks who gets SUPER excited every time he sees one of the inn's cats).

We played games,  went to the lake, ate food, hiked, did crafty things, chatted, held a lawn game Olympics, and hung out, all of which was delightful. I was introduced to the concept of a reverse pinata (which is amazing) and my nieces and I invented Yoga Twister.

And I did manage to sneak out and do some photography. I mean,  I got lots of photos of the family, but I also did some hobby photos. Which I will share with you because no one's personal life will be exploited if I do. Sorry. You don't get to chuckle over the mud-coated children at the beach. But enjoy the cows and kittens!
