The Phan’s showed up with Grandma and Grandpa Brill Saturday afternoon. It was a windy day but we all headed out for some clamming anyway. The tides were too high but everyone had fun playing in the water. I hung out in the warm car with Grandma, Kimberly, and Evan. It was FREEZING out there! We had a late barbecue of ribs that night and had the campfire going in the back yard. The older kids had fun roasting marshmallows.
Sunday morning it was time to feed the cows… big family affair this time!
The Emily’s fed the cows. Everyone else just wanted to watch.
After church the boys went for a drift down the Trask….. no fish. They came home early and the kids spent the rest of the day playing.
Then we fired up the barbecue and the fire pit. Everyone enjoyed brauts, hotdogs, and roasted marshmallows!
Monday morning Doug, Grandpa, and Austin woke up early to take the big boat out on the ocean. The rest of the gang went out clamming again. This time at low tide.
The clamming gang brought back some serious clams. Three buckets!!!
The three guys had a great time and did manage to bring back some fish also.
Before the Phan’s headed back toward Springfield we all ate a big meal.
There are 11 people around that table! Just like the good ol’ days!
