Grandma Wonderful's reunion party pics

Saturday, May 11, was Grandma Wonderful's reunion party!
It was held at her clubhouse (awesome memories there!!) and
Rachelle and the girls, as well as Jesse, and everyone else who helped
out did an AMAZING job putting it together!
I know for me and my fam, I haven't seen anyone in 2+ years, so
it was absolutely fantastic to see everyone who was there,
and to hang out, talk, play games... and carry out a Rook tourney.
-
That day happened to be Raini's actual birthday!! So Rachelle was thoughtful enough
to put together a little bday corner for her, with decorations and even gifts!
(Of course, this means that Raini thought the WHOLE party was all for her! haha)
It was so fun for her. She loved her birthday area, and she carried her gift bag around
all day and all night, not letting it out of her sight for one second!

Strike a pose! ...With her princess gear ;)

-
A bit fuzzy, but this is Gram and her kids: Robyn, Sue, Wally, Rhonda,
Leslie and Grandma 
-
Charlie's Angels much?? 
-
Oh, I miss this guys so much! 
- 
Peli and Wubbs playing ball with their 1st cousins twice removed haha
(we had to study that one out...)
-
At one point, Raini arranged her gifts as seen below, then she got my camera
out of my purse and took this photo herself! She was proud. 
-
Raini also took this pic of Grandpa Lance, Joe and Peach

Another random shot by Rain-

Posing with her precious swag

The boys basically never came inside! They played tennis, basketball,
hula hoops, and played in the "sandbox" (a sand v-ball court)

Rook tournament: Jake and Lance playing Kim and Hoot at left,
Suka and Ethan toward the right, and Robyn and Jill far right

When it was almost time for us to leave, I glanced out the window and
snapped this shot of Peli. The kids were still playing, but he was taking
a break watching them. ...he was also getting tired... 
-
Candles!

So much fun! Hope we can do it again before next summer!
