The Good, the Bad, and the Gross

First the good: The entire Sirin family, meaning Selcuk's parents, their five children, their four married childrens' spouses, and their four grandchildren (with a fifth present in utero), were all at the summer house for a family reunion over the past three days. It went great. The siblings had a lot of fun together, swimming, taking turns preparing meals, fishing, etc. Cagdas and his family had to leave first, but the rest of the family is still here.

The bad: I am avoiding writing. I have a number of projects I could/should be working on, but I am too busy relaxing and swimming to get to them. I'll be paying for this later for sure.

The gross: Poor Taylan got a bad stomach virus and spent the night barfing. He is OK, but not feeling great. Hopefully it won't last long.

Well, that is the exciting goings on here. Below are a couple photos of some of the kids.
