Dinner on the patio

Saturday night we enjoyed dinner in our backyard on the patio. The mosquitos aren't out yet so it was a pleasant time with my parents, twin brother and his family. The kids sat at their own table. Left to right: my wife, sister-in-law, Mom, twin brother and Dad

A beautiful family gathering! Such an elegant table setting, makes me laugh at my own efforts where we just sorta slap things together on our patio! Kudos to your wife who probably organizes all of this for you!!

Very nice! My (slightly) younger sister is coming to visit us for a week, so we'll have some kind of family gathering as well.

Well, lucky, lucky you! Food looks good, as does the family. Saturday night we had the granddaddy of all thunderstorms. It rained all weekend, today, and it's supposed to rain all week....did you see my photo today?

You always have such lovely settings for get-togethers! I love your mother's colorful shirt ;-)

Your dad and brother use the same barber that «Louis» uses. The three of us wear our hair in that fashion-forward reverse Mohawk.

Good idea to let the kids sit at their own table, I think. So is your bother different from you...or are there actually TWO of you? :)

For me there is no need for introduction, somehow I already know all your close relatives from previous posts! It is great to have so solid family.
