Tina's 10 Year CSB Reunion!!

In June, Tina celebrated her 10 year college reunion (I feel old!) at St. Ben's.  A group of us, who have all been friends since freshman year, got two suites in Lottie (our sophomore residence) to spend the weekend living it up like the college years.  GB Leighton played Friday night, followed by, you guessed it, Sals!  Saturday was a reunion picnic (see photo), a visit to SJU, and more fun in the dorms.  You can tell we're all getting older...one night of the bar scene was enough.  We spent Saturday night playing cards and chatting.  At least we didn't go to bed early!!  I feel so fortunate to have attended CSB and that I found the best friends in the world to share that experience with and have them a huge part of my life still today.  YOU'RE ALL THE BEST!!

Shady Rest Resort...Spanier style!

Grandma and Grandpa Spanier with Max, Taylor, Brynn and Ethan

Brynn...our water lover!

Grandpa and "E-train" (nickname given by Grandpa Spanier!)

Brynn must be tuckered out from all of her swimming!

Max decided that he likes the water now...at least a little anyway

We had a great week at the cabin with the whole Spanier clan.  We went to Shady Rest Resort on Lake Amelia in Villard from Tuesday through Saturday.  We had the best weather, accommodations and, of course, company.  The kids had the best time playing, swimming, pontooning and spending time with their cousin Taylor, Aunt Jana, Uncle Eric and G & G Spanier.  It was a special week and will certainly be repeated next year!  Thanks to the Schwieters' and the Thomas' for taking Gage for us...unfortunately they didn't allow pets at the resort, so they were our puppy sitters!  The kids really missed him (us too) and it was great to see him again.  He was well taken care of and loved to pieces while we were gone, so that is a good feeling.  He even grew while we were away!
