What better way to end the day then ice cream for everyone!

I like how all the kids, from young to old, squeezed onto one table. Lots of laughter. :)

All the cousins sure seemed to enjoy hanging out over the weekend!

 We even had an extra girl or two… ;)

The end of another peaceful, fun day at the family reunion.

Just enjoying reading my Bible!

Meet the children of tent city!

The view for my quiet time on the first day of the family reunion.

Johnny entertaining the cousins with his jaw harp

Nice campsite, useful vehicle. Converted from cameras to camping in 30 mins. :)

Kind of puts the S in SUV.

Fire and smoke looks cool when captured still. Larry’s wood shavings helped.

Macro bark

Beautiful blue skies and sunny weather this weekend!

Even Snoopy likes to take a break during the family reunion! ;)

I caught all the cousins having fun together...

It’s great to see all the cousins hanging out in their own little circle and enjoying time. It’s a wide range of ages these days. From eight up to 21.

Just a little trip across the lake...

I think Danny is excited about the family reunion this year!

It’s that time of year again and the cousins didn’t waste any time getting to the beach. Thursday evening and already time for a little volleyball.

Work hard, play hard, move fast!

That's our company motto. This is how you take care of customers and still make it to the family reunion on time...! ;)

Early morning fog on Julie and Andy’s Kentucky road trip

Andy is making progress on his house. The upper floor is complete, now to the stairs and first floor...

A different perspective of the barn

"These pants annoy me, so I’m gonna sit on them..."

Kind of a twisted mess, but cool looking too.

Just on a walk around the homestead.

Looks like a great weekend for camping...!

Andy decided to make a popsicle house. This is the first room...

I love to see them creating and using the workshop.

Cat photo of the day...

If those are Michigan Apples, I would hate to see Texas Apples!

Our demo van tour was a smashing success. I think it was the donuts!

You might be having a long week when you have “stand” activity continuously from 1:00-10:00 AM and reach your goal by 2p!?

Just the normal morning orders at Bill’s Donuts...!

That ripple in the water is Andy diving for rocks... :)

On the road again for day two of the demo van

Julie’s pod babies all ready for boiling!

Taking a break to cool off with Andy, and watching the could go by.

I’m all ready to hit the road in the Mystery Machine. Should be a fun day with the Cognex Demo Van

Julie’s most recent crop of milkweed pods. I’m already getting hungry!

Storms rolling in can be pretty. This is while Andy and I were out back swimming.

10 mins later and it was pouring rain!

I got talked into helping the boy’s Subway with some “spring cleaning”. A little power washing out front.

The sign now looks as fresh as the subs. :)

The Mystery Machine (AKA Demo Van) will never be the same again, once I have it for a few days...! :)

What is wrong with this picture...?!

Sunny blue skies and rain?

This tickles my geek funny bone perfectly!

Nice neck pillow...

Our local grocery is selling pee cans...?

This guy just showed up on our back porch. This is not my cat, is THIS how you get a cat.

He's actually one of the neighborhood barn cats, but has decided that it's fun to spend some time with us. I think he just likes that we will pet him. Very friendly little guy with a cool faded yellow striped coloring. He especially likes Andy. Meet Skittles. The neighbor's kids named him before anyone got a chance to "look at the bottom of his feet..." ;)

Something about this just made me laugh. Sooooo Andy! :)

Andy showing me all the frogs he caught!

Shadow mugging for the camera...

The neighbor’s barn cat, Skittles, helped Andy catch a bucket of frogs.

If they jumped out of the pond she would chase them back in where Andy could grab them. She follows him all around whenever she's at our place and he's outside.

Andy then Johnny showing off their pistol skills at the National SASP Go Fast stage. 2.19 and 2.62s

“Who, me? I’m not up to any trouble...!” Pepper enjoying watching the wildlife in Julie’s terrariums

One of our favorite stages at Nationals. Go Fast. Andy turned a 1.7 second time for the five targets with the pistol caliber carbine.

I caught Shadow and Pepper in a moment of play. They might work out their relationship after all...? ;)
