REUNION TIME--
We may not carry the Scalley name
But we do carry the Super Scalley genes!!
Here we all are--
except Morgan and Jacob
who were in NM attending his reunion--
(sharing is good, but hard!!)
Uncle Steven and Aunt Meredith are going to be missed
(Especially by Riley and Emma)
My attempt at a Super Cape--
it did last thru the reunion--
my only goal!!
And this super Riley flies in the firetruck
with the help of Uncle Steven
happy times!
Great Grandma Maxfield was also there to help
with the celebrations
We mulit-tasked the celebrations
including Bob's 80th birthday
(actually July 24th)
See, he really did enjoy the festivities!!
The singing siblings!!
(look we even made Emma dance!)
My mother, Lola, outdid herself--
Songs, stories and props
We all had a wonderful day, mom--thanks!
Gathered in the family circle!
Red flannel capes
made by Great Grandmother Maxfield
for the Scalley reunion
Just in time for the new Harry Potter movie!!
Enjoyed by all!!
then over to our house to cool down--
Water baseball!!
wading pools as bases
Big boys with "glory days' in their eyes!
Brother against brother
the Maxfield men were able to hit
"pool to pool" home runs--
Way to defend the home turf!!
Riley, waiting on 1st base after her single
"SAFE"
Ron trying to tag out Sebastian
not sure if this is the best way to welcome
a new nephew into the family
(Congrats Seville and Sebastian--can't wait for your wedding in Aug.)
Steven cooling and chilling on 1st
After all that playing--
pool time!!
and of course a game of water--basketball
Four days later--when Marita came to town
a Maxfield mini-reunion
Again, the competitive juices flowed--
we never can just "swim" in the pool--
oh, no
Water basketball--
the girls needed the extra height!!
I think Rhonda (great grandma) Maxfield
(since I am now Grandma Maxfield!!)
had the right idea!!
Loved the family time--
thanks mom for all your hard work--
thanks brothers and sisters and their families
we love you!!
Looks like great fun. I can only hope that our family can have great times like these when they all get married.
