Here we are! The entire Anderson/Ehrlich family gathered in NH for our first family reunion since 2004! This was Zoe's first time ever with everyone...all 14 of us!
It was a full, but relaxing week. We'll share several memories over the next few days...and due to the hundreds of pictures taken, I will put a slideshow together to capture all the fun memories.
One of the highlights was celebrating my Dad's 65th birthday! We planned a surprise 'Red Sox' party for him on the night the Yankees were in town. All of us dressed in Red Sox garb and completely decked out their condo with every Sox paraphernalia you could imagine! Dinner consisted of Fenway Franks, nachos, peanuts & popcorn. Too bad the Sox didn't provide us anything to cheer about.
After dinner we ventured outside to take whacks at a baseball pinata. All six kids took turns hitting the candy & toy filled ball as hard as they could. After about 13 rounds of the 6 kids whacking the resilient baseball, the adults took a few turns. It proved just as difficult for the 'big' kids. The pinata finally gave way, and candy started to spill. The frenzy of activity meant that the candy didn't last more than a second or two before being snatched up!
That's a great picture. How fortunate are you that you can gather the whole family together like that. I'm not a Sox fan, but I hate the Yankees more so I am all for the themed party. Plus, can you go wrong with dogs and popcorn? I doubt it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a special day you created for your dad! It will definitely be one that he treasures for years to come.
