Frost Family Reunion

This year the Frost Family (descendants of Harold & Beth Frost {Rachael's dad's parents} and their families) got together for a short reunion.  We are already planning for next year's reunion and hope to make it an annual event! 

Short family history: Harold & Beth had 3 boys: George, Donald & Charles (R's dad).  George married Cecie and have a daughter: Tara who is married to Alex and they have 3 kids: George (6), Sammie (3) & Michelle (1).  Donald married Cathy and had 3 kids: Rob (living with his wife & daughter in the NE part of the country), Ray who is married to Carley and they have 3 kids: Cathlyn (10), Allison (9) and Pierce (7) & Kay (who has passed away).  Charles married Jeanne and had 2 kids: Elizabeth who is married to Robert and they have 1 kid: Charlie (6) and Rachael who married Chris and has 2 kids: David (4) and Michael (3).

Out of those listed above, the following attended the reunion: Charles; Cecie; Tara, Alex & kids; Ray, Carley & kids; Elizabeth, Robert & kid; Rachael, Chris & kids.

We all had a good time and enjoyed getting to know one another (some had never met and for others it had been a while).  We met at the Thunderbird Resort in Burnet (on Lake Buchanan) for the weekend (July 29-31).  We are all within hours of there (Burnet, San Antonio, Houston-area), so it was a pretty central location for all of us.  Unfortunately the lake was extremely low, but we were still able to go out on Alex & Tara's boat (at least some of us were able to) for a bit on Saturday. 

Here are some pictures from the weekend (there are too many to post all of them!)
