The second weekend in June is our family time at a cabin. We have made many memories over the years. There was a point where the Burkholder family cabin was too small and we had to find a larger one. That one became full too, but we always managed to find a place for everyone to sleep.
This year we had the smallest crowd we've had in a long time. I saw this day coming years ago and knew the grandchildren would have lives of their own and not be there all weekend as before. This year five of the adult grandchildren were either living out of state or in another country. Some had other activities and some came for part of the time.
The younger grandchildren had a good time and got along really well. Cheryl was in charge and had planned several activities for them. We had a good time visiting with our children and catching up with each other. It is a blessing to have a family that gets along so well. The pictures speak for themselves.
Abi loved the water balloons
Emma learned how to make a pom pom
Cheryl directed the tie dying
The generations blend with granddaughter Abi and
great-grandson Elijah who are both two years old.
The five youngest grandchildren
Jay and Nick played a game
Abi rode her tricycle on the deck
while the adults sat and visited
and Gerald made chicken bbq for Saturday supper.
Now don't you wish you were a Stauffer?
