One of the best days of the year had finally arrived, the family picnic in Bradford! For over 30 years running, Uncle Roy has presided over a fun-filled day of family, food, and festivities. And it gets better every year as the new generation starts to dominate the attendance. Isabelle was attending her 3rd one already(!), Oliver was of course making his debut, as were Carys and Peter. What fun years lie ahead for us as these ones start to rule the roost, especially when joining up with Sarah, Liam, Vivian, Mikaela, Annika, Claire and Aileen. Wow, so many kids! A great day to spend catching up with everyone and reacquainting Isabelle with the various contests, including the penny jar, nail hammering, shoe kicking and the water balloons. You can probably guess from the pictures which one she enjoyed most. Oliver had fun getting passed around and visiting the new faces, plus he even found the time to snooze through all the racket! We were able to top off the day back at the farm by setting up a very popular new addition, the bouncy castle. We could not have asked for a better time and we cannot thank Catherine, Kayla and Jay for hosting this each and every year! Already looking forward to the 2010 version!Chatting cousins
