Happy 25th Anniversary

Twenty-five years ago for some reason all my Dad's family got together for a weekend of family fun in Indianapolis and have been doing it ever summer since.  I don't know what the events were for that first weekend but it has morphed into a golf tournament (even though few actually play golf well), a couple of parties, and a day spent at the lake (everybody floats well).  Originally organized by a core group of cousins, it's become known as the Crum Cousin (that is morphed term as well and I believe it started as Scum Cousin).

We haven't attended the weekend in years.  And the last ones we attended were off-site in Chicago and New Mexico so we haven't been to Indy in a really long time.  Couldn't miss the 25th!  It was great to see everyone and the crowd has gotten MUCH larger - there must have been about 80 people there and alot of kids.  I didn't pull out my camera until the day at the lake but here are some photos.

Always a bit of an Irish theme

Floating Family!

 

So, next year will go offsite again to Michigan.  I doubt we'll make it two years in a row.  But, I know that the family was happy to have so many of the Texas Hollands in attendance.
