The McClinchey Picnic and Surprise 80th Birthday Party

The 2nd Saturday of our vacation our family went to a McClinchey Family reunion and surprise 80th birthday party for my (BJ's) Grandma. It was held at my Uncle Paul and Aunt Linda's home (south of Hamilton, Ontario). For those of you who don't know my parent's divorced when I was younger. Here is our family with my Dad and his girl-friend Roxy.

BJ with her Dad (William Milton McClinchey- he goes by "Bill").


Jarom, Colorado, and Isaac took a dip in the pool.


Happy Birthday!
Actually my Grandma (Naida), doesn't really turn 80 until October. We all celebrated her birthday early at the family reunion.

Here is most (but not all) of my Grandma's Grandchildren, and Great-Grandchildren. Can you find the Russell crew in the photo?
My Grandma and Grandpa had 8 children. My dad is on the left (he is the oldest) and going all the way to the right is the youngest sibling.

My Uncle Paul and his son-in-law built this play structure in the back yard. The kids had lots of fun playing on it.

Avery went down the slide for about 40 minutes. My cousin Kirt stood at the bottom catching the kids and my Uncle Rick was at the top making sure they got onto the slide okay.

Jarom and Colorado took in some pool.
