Family Gathering 2010

Our annual Family Gathering was hosted by Debbie, Chris, Hamish and Charlotte at their lovely home in Tuscany, Manukau. It was an enjoyable, happy occasion that we had all looked forward to.
David St George will publish the 'official' photos in the next day or two; meanwhile here are the best of David Alexander's.



Ali and Steve brought a great cake to commemorate the Jenkins and Alexander families. Left: Jenkins Family, probably about 1934. Max is at the back; Noline, Audrey and Merle in front.
Right photo:Alexander Family: Kath and Dorothy at the back; Josy, William (Dad) and Joe in front.(J&J were twins) We would estimate that it was taken in about 1930.



Here is a photo of Audrey cutting the cake helped by Charlotte and Alex. (Alison & Steve's children)



There was great hilarity as Steve cut it up. (Brought back memories of very noisy occasions in the past, when the Jenkins's used to get together.)



Soon it was time to pose for photos. There will be one of 'the cousins' on David's blog. It was so neat to have Suzanne and Mike here from Vancouver; and Glen and family from Sydney, this year. Here are the 'Outlaws' (married to cousins) and the cousin's children.



Finally we have the Geor family. It was lovely to meet Lucas and Isabella for the first time, and to catch up again with Glen, Lawrence, and Helene.

Looks like a lot of fun. Nice to see all the familiar faces.
