Gathering on the Ranch

4 days on the mountain does a family good. We attended a family reunion on my husbands side recently and got to play with and love on almost 90 relatives for 4 days. My assignment for the week was to be the "photographer." I had to captured at least one family shot of each family that attended and then capture some of the moments from all the activities during the week. It was a bigger job than I thought it would be. I created a collage of some snapshots of my family and few I managed I actually be in front of the camera. The one in the upper left corner is what I pretty much looked like the whole reunion - behind the lens. (wink) I also got to ride a horse for the very first time. Very fun for me - just call me city slicker! LOL!!! All in all a very good time.Here's a few more artistic shots I was able to capture this week as well taking in our surroundings and activities.






And just because you are in the mountains doesn't mean you can't still be fashionable while cooking right? One of my Husbands Aunt's received this Cherry Hostess apron I created as a gift for helping out with some other activities and prizes during the week. Isn't she so cute! She has a barbie like figure and looked so chic while getting the food ready!
