#10-20 Martin Family Reunion and kids, Wimer, OR

Would you believe that I forgot my camera? We met with son, Ray, Nicole and their kids Aubrey and Alex at Crater Lake on Friday. (no pictures) The snow was still there and we had a little snow ball throwing fun. After seeing the lake and playing in the snow we all drove down the mountain to Union creek and had lunch at Becki’s restaurant. The kids left for Wimer, and Frank and I went to Central Point to stay with son Jeff and family.

We met with the all three of the Martin kids, their kids, and our great grandson at Abby’s in Rogue River and had Pizza on Friday night. There were 16 of us!

Frank has decided that a nice day at the swimming pool with his teenage grandsons bringing him ice cold beer was more his kind of day than a day at the ranch with all kinds of Martin’s. So Saturday, Dixie took the car and headed to “the ranch” to spend the day with her kids and grandkids and our great grandson. (As well as a bunch of Martins!)

Thank you Kirsten for loaning me your camera. Now you can see the reasons Dixie spent the day in Wimer.

Four generations! Great Grandma Dixie, Mom-Rachel, Grandma Laurie and baby Eldon.

Eldon and Grandma Laurie. He liked standing in the pool, but didn’t want to be laying in the water.

Ah, just laying back enjoying the RV life.

Aubrey makes friends very easily, Here she is on her first (I think) horseback ride with a new friend!

Another new friend and Aubrey in the wading pool. They have a sprinkler in there with them.

Aubrey and the Hula Hoop. She will try anything once! I get tired just watching her. By the end of the day she was a tired little four year old.

Finally, dinner time. Allie, Rachel’s husband and the father of Eldon, helped grill the ribs. Good job, Allie. They were all very tasty.

This is most of the family. I think there were only three grandkids missing and of course my main man, Frank was lounging by the pool at Jeff’s.
