Platt Family Reunion

Each June Katie's family attends the Platt Family Reunion in Crockett, TX. (Katie's great-grandmother was a Platt) We look forward to this time each year as a great opportunity to catch up with our family and to have fun! We're so blessed that we get along so well with our extended family and always have such a great time.

We spent most of our camera battery (we forgot our extras) on taking pictures of our cousin & her fiance (next blog!) and so there aren't too many of anyone else:

Michael at the hotel pool.

Katie's cousin, Tim, at dinner.

David's Graduation

In June, Katie's brother, David graduated from high school. We didn't get many shots, but here are some pictures of the family before heading out to the celebratory breakfast!

Katie's Dad's sister and father came to the graduation also, but they weren't able to stay for Sunday breakfast and so we didn't get any pictures of them :(

Brazos Bend State Park

A few months ago we visited the wildlife-infested Brazos Bend State Park with Katie's family. There were many wonderful photo-opps of God's magnificent creation of both nature & humans!

Katie's cousin Will--he's silly :)

Katie's sweet cousin, Michael.

On the way out we took many pictures of the fantastic landscapes of southeast Texas.
This tree reminded us of Psalm 1.

How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
Nor stand in the path of sinners,
Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!
But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water,
Which yields its fruit in its season
And its leaf does not wither;
And in whatever he does, he prospers.
