This post has more photos than most, simply because the photos tell the story better than any narrative could! We had a truly wonderful and special Trepanier Family reunion at Purity Springs Resort this Labor Day weekend. This was our 5th year in a row, gathering at Purity as a full family -- all 20 of us. We went into this vacation, thinking it'd be our last one, at least for awhile. But by the end, we were all scheming to figure out how we could return next summer.
The kids, aged 4 to 17, have so much fun and get along so well. It's really remarkable. Brady mastered the back flip off the diving board, Connor's favorite was all the time at the "secret beach," Margaret proudly climbed and jumped off the inflatable iceberg. I was pretty happy with myself completing, as I called it, the "Purity Trifecta" -- waterskiing, climbing and jumping off the iceberg, and jumping off the high platform on the floating dock!
I'm so grateful for all that this weekend means to all of us.
