Reunions and More Reunions

Well the last several weeks have been filled with a Family Reunion and several soccer alumni games for Joe. It's been great catching up with family and friends.

First up starting off the reunion tour was the Faenzi family Reunion...
It was a HOT day outside! We went to the Smith's House. They have a huge gravel pit that has been made into a big pond. Lots of people were swimming and having a great time. There was tons of food and lets not forget the bingo game! Here are some pics...

This is my uncle, my dad's brother. This is the first time since last years family reunion that my sister and I got to see him. Since my fathers passing he separated himself from the family a little. I think my dads death hit him harder than it did the rest of us. It's so great to see him though. I only hope that we can begin to spend more time together.


Here is Joe making sure that Alex doesn't fall into the water!


So minus the wind interference this is a good picture! Ha Ha...


My sis!

And then a few days later we headed to Greenfield-Central High School for Joe's annual alumni soccer game. It was really fun watching the "old men" chasing around the younger kids! I have to say though the alumni won the game. Joe was pretty sore the next day! I took Alex to the game. He had soooo many questions about what was going on. It is amazing watching him grow up. I took a few pics after the game was done....


Thanks for the post game entertainment AJ!

I think this last picture is so precious! Alex is so cute! The night was really fun and I think Alex wants to play soccer even more after watching the big kids play!
Last weekend we headed to Franklin College to watch Joe's other soccer alumni game. The old men get to play against the actual soccer team for Franklin. Some of those college kids were running circles around the old men! And here I am saying old men but most of the guys out there were around 26-30. Again the alumni beat Franklins team in a shoot out! Ha ha!! Can you believe it!? After the game was over we stayed for about 45 for a cook out provided by the parents of current players. The food was wonderful and it was great catching up with people. It's really depressing how fast the years have flown by. It just really reminds me that we should take in every moment and try to enjoy ourselves!
