MAMA BEAR FAMILY REUNIONS

This was our first year starting "Mama Bear" Family Reunions.  Really, any woman who has children can be called a "Mama Bear".  With that thought in mind, we gathered our cubs together to spend time.  Family reunions are about reconnecting families, enjoying great food, sharing experiences, laughter, fun and making memories together.  This was a trip, we will soon not forget.  We are hoping in the years to come, other family members will join us.
Picture day was a highlight for many of us.  Jayleen was able to get her senior high school photos taken on the beach, we enjoyed getting our group photo all together (to commemorate the event), and then each individual family (took advantage of the moment), and were able to obtain individual keepsake photographs.  All pictures were taken on the beautiful grounds of the Banyan Bay Resort in San Pedro, Belize.  The following photographs were professionally taken by Pablo Garcia Photography.  For more information on Pablo Garcia, go to:

Today will be picture day with a professional photographer.  Everyone will want to spend the day (for the most part), primping in front of a mirror, preparing for pictures.  We will be taking our group Family Reunion photo at 3:00 p.m.  Afterwards, everyone can individually have their families photos taken by the same photographer.  About 5:30-6:00 p.m. we will be having a beach front dinner (at Banyan Bay Resort - Pier 366) with patio lighting and & a guitar player.  The photographer will be joining us for dinner, to photograph our family enjoying time together.
