Family is:
where probably 90% of you drink coffee - enough to keep two coffee pots busy.
when you play 31 games of Uno, mostly the "crazy" type till after 1 in the morning.
Family is driving through the snow once, turning back, and trying again.
Family is singing, playing, clapping, and occassionly clogging.
Family is sitting around camp, eating ham sandwiches and chips, with the snow falling outside.
Family is crowding 9 people and a dog into a Jeep in order to get across the creek.
Family is getting with cousins, laughing and joking, and jumping over chairs (for some).
Family is setting the camera on a rock on the self-timer setting, and scrambling over rocks to get in place before the picture takes.

I love these pics! They're so fun, and make me wish I'd been along to witness the clogging and try to fit into the Jeep! ;-D
It looks like you had a great time. I'm glad. And thanks for the comments on my blog. It makes it more fun to blog when I know I'm not just talking to myself...that way I'm not completely crazy. =D
I love your pics!! Sounds a bit like my family... minus clogging... and adding lots of gross hospital stories and replacing uno with a game called rage. But many striking similarities.
