Family Reunion

I got home last night from a family reunion that my sister and her family hosted up in Ithaca, New York. Everyone was there with the exception of my youngest brother, who is currently out of the country- believe me, his absence left a big hole. It was wonderful to see nephews and nieces, all who have grown considerably since I saw them last, and to meet my youngest little niece. We spent the week hiking and swimming and playing games and picking berries and eating great food and visiting Palmyra and seeing a ball game and watching a movie and contra dancing and just enjoying our time together. Coming home, I find that my home is much too quiet, and I miss having the fire trucks and train tracks and bionicles and playmobil accessories all over the place. I need to work on that...

Many thanks to everyone who made this week possible!

I took lots of photos, and here are some of my favorites.
