Spec Pond

On July 27th we went to a Millette family reunion at the Bass Point Club at Spectacle Pond. It's a little bittersweet looking back at the photos now, since Uncle Armand helped plan the entire event and was there in full spirit. He was a proud member of the Bass Point Club and I have fond memories of going there many times growing up. I specifically recall a time that Chris and I took the row boat out and got stuck circling around and around in the middle of the pond because our rowing was not coordinated!

Here are some photos--some taken by my Dad and some by our family friend PT, who was hired to photograph the event...

Uncle Chris took Andie, Luke & Anna for a spin in the canoe. He said they were very bossy "go this way... go faster... catch that other boat" etc... :)

 Claire spent most of the day meeting people from the comfort of Grammy's arms...

 Three cousins on a raft...

 Lots of extended Millettes  in the water!

 The kids enjoyed jumping off the dock... they were very brave!

 Cousins & best pals...

My Grammy...

 And Grampa...

 My wonderful Auntie Carol...

 Too bad Keith wasn't there to join in this family shot!

 Nice throw Uncle Chris!

 Anna and my cousin Michael's daughter Sophie (what does that make these two?). Sophie is headed to Catholic University in D.C. any day now...

 Is Luke trying to whack Andie with this paddle or is it just the angle of the photo?!

 Anna B. is fearless gal!

And Uncle Armand, having a great day (but working hard!) at one of his most favorite places, Spec Pond.
