We just got in at 5:00 tonight from another Garner State Park vacation with my family. We spent 5 days on the Frio river. I think this was our 16th year. We used to do the whole camping thing inside of the actual park, but now we live it up down the road in a 5 bedroom/5 bathroom cabin. GLORIOUS!!!!! This has been our biggest group since my brothers and I have all been married.
Mammy and Pappy- 2
Brandon, Sharla, 3 girls, & two nannies - 7
Dustin, Kelly, 2 boys + friend, Kelly's sister + friend - 7
Conn, Me, 2 girls- 4
Total - 20
It was a great week. Loud and crazy, but fun! We played on the river, had talent night out on the patio, went to the Garner dances, ate s'mores, played spades, had picture night, and laughed a lot. Thanks Mom and Dad, for another great year!
Oh, all of the green shirts are a new thing that Conn had the wonderful idea of starting. I guess it goes back to all of his days as a student pastor and having to have a shirt for every event. :) They were a big hit, and I think a new tradition for the many years to come.

Your family looks like TONS of fun and your girls are precious. Have I told you that before? You always have such great pics of them- and I love the coordinating outfits and bows. I just wish Riley would get enough hair for some of those!
