Mini Tobler Reunion

We had a great long, Independence Day weekend! We had a mini-Tobler reunion in Palm Bay and got to meet out new niece, Violet! We went to the beach, had many delicious meals, and enjoyed getting caught up. The boys braved the heat for a paint-ball game and helped Chad bless Violet at church on Sunday. It was a sweet experience and I'm thankful we could be a part of it.

Thank you, Chad & Janet, for having us! It was fun!

The boys, ready to go



Us with little Violet in her blessing dress (that Gramma Tobler made). She's so tiny and it was hard to find her under all that fabric!



She sleeps a lot!



We had a little birthday party for all of the summer birthdays. It's Tobler tradition to have every member of the family say why they love the birthday girl/boy. The used to do it while sitting on laps but, we feared the chair would buckle!

Karl went first



Then Jan



Then Chad



Then Janet



I was last but I make sure to tell Jeff why I love him every day!
