I remember the day in May when I was emailed the itinerary for the Groves Family Reunion. We were getting a foot of snow and I read the plans for each day with hope and excitement, believing that winter might actually end. The plans included time with Grandma and a family dinner, a day of water play at Tom and Sandy's, a day at Disneyland and a day at Huntington Beach. It meant the weather would be warm. It meant that summer had to be on its way.
If you've read this blog for any length of time, you know that I love family togetherness which makes a family reunion my favorite kind of gathering. Our last Groves Family Reunion was in 2009, so it was time to get together! (Remember these little movies Rory and Jack made?)
Since the last reunion, Ivar and Elsie have joined our family making this the first time they meet many of their extended family, including their great grandma Bernice. It was precious time together.
...one day Elsie will recognize this.

Ha, so cute. Presley is in that same "stranger danger" separation anxiety phase right now. Super fun. :)
Wonderful pictures with Great Grandma Groves! So thankful you captured these!!
It was a blessed time!
Great photos! Every time I see Elsie, I think she looks a lot like Elowen. Cute little baby teeth, bald head, chunky thighs - so much in common! ;)
