With so much of our family here, in central WI (38 first cousins on just the Hoyord side!), we knew that we needed to find a day to try and get together, before we leave!
We gathered at Colony Oaks Park this afternoon, and were blessed with 2+ hours of sunshine before it was cozy cousins under the pavilion, for a brief thundershower.   
It was great to visit with everyone - and we missed the 4 of the 13 sibs and fams unable to make it.
I definitely did more talking and watching, than snapping pictures.  Here are the ones that I did manage to get.

| Haylee, making a masterpiece :) |

| Gressa's, sick-from-too-much-tire-swing, face! |

| Henry & Mama.. ADORABLE, just-woke-up-from-a-snooze-on-Kelsey snuggle!

| And this girl!  So fun to have Kelsey here for the rest of this week! In this moment, Gressa had  just found out the happy news :)
 
 Family and friends are connected by heart.
 Distance and time can't break them apart.
