It is so hard to believe that summer is almost officially over! We just returned from our last trip of the summer season, the Kentzel/Marcille family reunion in Columbus, Indiana - affectionately nicknamed Camp Fisher, in honor of Gretchen and Steve Fisher, Scott's aunt and uncle and our hosts for the weekend. As usual, the atmosphere was laid back and easygoing - perfect for relaxing out by the dock. Jay enjoyed himself more than anyone else - he went kayaking with Dad, swimming with Aunt Traci, fishing with Uncle Steve, boating with everyone else, and plenty of time to do just about anything else a boy can do at a lake house! Uncle Steve was sweet and let Jay follow him around one day as he did odds and ends around the house in preparation for our family dinner and concert Friday night by a band auditioning for cousin Brett and Nicci's wedding next June. The bongo drums and acoustic guitar were a hit with little Andrew! Most importantly, it was a wonderful time to celebrate Scott's mom's recovery from a stem cell transplant she underwent eariler this summer to treat multiple myeloma - a rare blood cancer. She looks GREAT! Her energy level is bouncing back extremely well. It was so wonderful seeing her reunited with her mother, 2 sisters, husband, children, and grandchildren enjoying a much needed relaxing vacation. We love you Donna! Enjoy the slide show!
