Part Two: Our Two Week Vacation - Gallagher Lake (Oliver)

After a week of camping at Wright's Beach Camp with my side of the family, everyone packed up to head out while we packed up to head out for a week of camping with Jon's side of the family.

What's a Struik family vacation without some updated family photos?!?!

{The family!}

{The grandkids!  There are 21 of them from 6 months to 15!}

{Jon and his four older sisters}

{Jen & Dave and kids}

{Pauline & Mike and kids}

{Leanne & Ryan and kids}

{Michelle & Kam and kids}

{Us!}

{Matthew}

{Kayla}

{Nathan}

And now, for the regular camping photos:




{Early morning shenanigans!  I was usually one of the first up, with Olivia.  I gave up on changing her before letting her out of the trailer.  Letting the others sleep is worth way more than clean pajamas.}





{Morgan was a frequent visitor at our site.  She always sat in the same spot at the table and liked to eat with us when we had hagelslaac (chocolate sprinkles) on bread in the morning}




{She was very fond of Olivia}











{By the end of our last week, Olivia was crazy in the water.  She would just walk straight in and wouldn't stop, even when the water was at her shoulders!!!}




{Buried in the sand and given mermaid tails}






{All the tricycle/bike riding kids...19 of them!}

{They went to bed amazingly every night; they were just so exhausted from all of the non-stop playing!}

  2. Great pictures of a wonderful week camping together with the family. Your kids are so cute, so full of fun, and it was so special to get to know them better. Miss them coming to our porch swing in the mornings.
