The Peters Family held a reunion at Wilson Park in
Deckerville on Sunday, September 19th. Drew had hockey that afternoon, so we
were a couple of hours late in arriving. Although most of the attendees were
distant relatives that I do not know well, we did get a chance to see some of my
aunts and uncles. The kids enjoyed themselves, spending a lot of time running
around the playground.
The best part of the day, in my opinion, occurred moments
before we left. Tyler had helped himself to a small plate of whip cream to eat.
As he was eating he leaned over to his plate to lick some of the whip cream off
of it. I was standing nearby, and seeing this scene I had an overwhelming urge
come over me that I just couldn't overcome. I casually stuck my arm out to the
plate and shoved it right into his face. With a face full of whip cream he had
no idea who did it, but since Samantha was sitting next to him she bore the
brunt of his blame by taking a face full herself. A little bit of a chase
ensued, as Sam had no idea why she got hit. After a short while we got them
settled down (they were having fun with it - nobody got too upset) and cleaned
up. My only regret is that I didn't have the cameras out to take any pictures of
them!
