Coffield family reunion - 2011

It was that time of year again – third Sunday in July – so us St. Alonzos made the trek down to Vancouver, WA to connect with Dave’s mom, Lani, the grandparents and all of the extended family. The trip down took us only four hours + (well yeah! I said we brought the girls! Winking smile) and the stay was only a couple of days, but the time was grand.

Some of the better shots:

Some lovely scenery

A very soggy reunion (with record-setting rainfall!)

Sweet (or tart?) eats

It’s always great to connect with the family and to show the girls where Daddy spent many of his formative summers. I’m so glad they are old enough to start collecting their own memories.

See you all next year if not sooner!
