Family Camping at the Farm

So our family has this weird tradition. For the last five years, we have had a family reunion by meeting together for a camping weekend. Three years ago, MaryAnn (Eric's Step-Mom) suggested that The Farm might be an ideal spot for "family camping". While it certainly feels less like camping in our yard, we definitely don't mind sleeping in our own bed and enjoying our hot shower. This year the attendance included John and Mary Ann (Eric's Dad and Step-Mom, Cedulie and Luis (Eric's Mom and Step-Dad), Susan (Eric's Step-Sister) Stefanie and George (Eric's Sister and Brother-in-law), Suzie (my Mom), and Chung and Rahime (my Sister and Brother-in-law.) We were especially blessed this year when our landlords offered us the use of their RV. In addition to a sleeping space that did not need to be "pitched," the use of a second bathroom proved to be a lifesaver. What happens at family camping you may ask? The answer is very simple. We play games and eat good food. Here are some pictures of our weekend.
