Hinckley-Abbott Family Reunion

This weekend we drove down to Houston (well, actually Spring) and had our annual get-together with Greg's aunt and all her kids and grandkids. It was such a blast! There were 11 kids there total and Trinity was the second oldest! It was hard to walk anywhere without almost stepping on a little one! The girls all had a really great time! There was only one girl other than our three, so they got to play a lot of things they don't play at home and the other folks were exposed to a lot of Barbie and Princess stuff they don't normally see (of course the girls had to take a huge suitcase full of Barbie and My Little Pony stuff). The weather was so great (or should I say so HOT) that the kids actually got in the pool...HELLO, it's mid-October! It was amazing to see all those Abbott kids swimming! The two year olds didn't even need floats or anything and they would swim down to the bottom of the pool or from one side to the other...holy cow!

I really enjoyed visiting with Greg's cousins and their spouses, it's been way too long! We all get along really well and have a great time together! Every time we see each other we talk about needing to take a vacation together or something and it never pans out. I guess with six individual families and all the kiddos there's just too much going on to really coordinate schedules. We hope this year we will actually be able to pull it off.
