Hornucopia 2012 - The Photo

The time came for the Official Hornucopia Family Lifetime Opportunity Photo (OHFLOP). We began gathering in the designated area, while Jessica marked out the logo in the sand.
Once again, Jeff expertly orchestrated the session.
Because of the camera mount location versus the target area, Jeff had to make a supreme effort to get into the picture within the 10 second timer.
Almost made it!
One more try...
Success!! Here's the official photo.
Thank you, everybody... and especially Jeff!

Hornucopia 2012 - Birthday Celebration

We celebrated John's 6th birthday. He got a pogo stick.
A Star Wars Lego kit.
A catapult kit (whatever that is), and more Legos things.
Then we had donuts.
Next, we had a fireworks show, coordinated by Uncle Tony.





Christopher wasn't too keen on the fireworks.
And to cap off the celebration, we had sparklers.

Hornucopia 2012 - Thursday

Aunt Jenny played a game with the kids...
...and read a story (or two, or three!)
There was a scavenger hunt, led by Thinking Fish II.


Uncle Tony and Aunt Jenny led a game of keep-away under the house.
Aunt Julie talked on the phone with Mimi.
During last night, some piling poles washed up on the beach by the house.
John and Naomi enjoyed reading in the shade of the house.
Ada got thirsty.
Naomi's Daddy performed a spinterectomy on her foot. She had three of them, from the deck.
We had Mexican food for dinner.
