Dryden Family Reunion 2009

I added these pictures in the wrong order. If you start from the bottom of this post and work your way up they go in order except for the first two pictures.


This was the first night at Steve and Erica's house before Tess, Tayli and Grandma and grandpa came. We played alot of Guitar Hero. It got even more fun when jessie unlocked some new songs to play.

We went to Cunningham Lake for the day near Gettysburg. Here is Eve, Jillie, and grandma

Paulie and Jillie at John and Laura's house

Some of us went to the Dupont Mansion in Deleware one day. This was so exciting. The DuPont mansion has 9 floors! But we only saw the 5th floor. In this room, he bought the wallpapar and then made the room to fit it. Above each window he had an artist paint the mountain scenary to match the wallpaper but over time the parts above the windows have gradually became darker. You can tell if you look closely.

We stopped at this fruit and vegetable stand to buy some corn for dinner. I loved how they had everything displayed in baskets and barrels

Gettysberg battlefield. This looks like a painting that is how beautiful it was.

The Old Post Office in D.C. We went up to the top floor and saw a panaramic view of the city.

Dana... what a great re cap. I might have to steal a couple pictures. John looks so handsome in the one where he's pushing the stroller. I LOVE the pictures of Jillie in her bathing suit. She is such a doll. Missing you already.
