More Summer Family Fun

We had a great 4th of July weekend in the small town of New Harmony, Indiana, where we attended the Toska family reunion (hopefully the first of many!)



It was nice to get together with some folks we hadn't seen in a few years, meet new family members, and just relax for a few days. Charlie had a great time with his second cousin Patrick, who is about 6 months older. They really hit it off. Liam and Grace, both about 8 months old, seemed to get along alright as well!

Despite a dozen or so bug bites per person, and the extreme summer heat and humidity, we enjoyed the town as well. I didn't really get to explore the small shops at all, but Charlie and I walked one of the labyrinths on a hot hot day. It was surprisingly relaxing. The 4th of July golf cart parade was awaited with much anticipation. And a good portion of our group enjoyed the fireworks.


Tomorrow we head off to Cleveland to visit with the Robenalt side of the family, and to celebrate Morgan's high school graduation. Charlie is excited to visit with everyone up there, although he did ask me yesterday about the time we went there and Mommy and Daddy weren't there. He clearly has not forgotten that we left him there for 5 days last summer while we went on our adult-only vacation!
