The Family Reunion 2006




Well I guess it makes the most sense to go in chronological order of things.
Friday- Hop in the car in Ottawa and drive the usually 3 hour trip which lasted 4.5 hours to the 'Burg. Arrived shortly after 7pm watched some tube with Mom and passed out. Had I realized it was the last sleep I was going to get between Friday and Monday I would have went to bed earlier.

Saturday- Get up super early have a bath make myself presentable. Had I have known it was the last shower I was going to get between Saturday and Monday I would have washed my hair. Dad picks me up and off we go to the most picturesque place I have ever seen (UK excluded). Beautiful colours and amazing scenery. There was a teepee too! Soon the family arrives, clan by clan we filled the backyard with trailers. Then I saw it. Kelly the pig on a scewer. Took forever to cook him but he sure was yummy and the whole backyard smelled like bacon. I learned how to play bocci ball which is actually fairly easy when you're not tossing directly into the sunlight. Had my first drink around 4ish. Now had I been to more family functions and known that everyone else had lots I would have brought more booze. Regardless we all reaquainted ourselves after a year or so and settled into a weekend on the farm. Here's the pics from Saturday night.
Okay the pics aren't loading could someone help me with this please.
There are more coming so just be patient please!

I personally like his rosy cheeks. I think the camera really captured them.
