Every year Jacin's company has a HUGE company picnic. This year it was at Rio Cibolo Ranch and it was a blast. There was good food, good friends, and lots of fun! 
There was a really nice playground which Shawn enjoyed.
and pony rides.
A petting zoo:
And a hay ride that took us to see some longhorn cattle and buffalo. The kids got to feed the animals food pellets by throwing them through the fence.
My brother, Jacob, works for the same company so his family was there too.
My brother got married last year and his new wife has a five-year-old son. Here are some pictures of Shawn with his new cousin Vince.
There was a nice deck overlooking the river where you could feed the fish. Here are a few pictures of us on the deck. I don't know why my face looks so strange here, we'll just say the sun was in my eyes.
The boys were very excited to visit the clown who was doing face painting. Shawn got a lion painted on his arm because I was afraid he would smear the paint into his eyes if it was on his face. Vince also got his arm painted with Lilo or Stitch (I don't know who is who).
Shawn loves bouncy houses so he spent a lot of time jumping.
One of the nice things about the company picnic is that it is truly a family affair because Jacin's twin brother Justin also works there. My dad originally started working there thirty-five years ago and is now retired. Jacin started working there ten years ago, Justin nine years ago and my brother six years ago. Here are some pictures of Justin's kids (well some of them, he has six but I didn't get pictures of all of them).

And we also have good friends that we've gotten to know over the past ten years.

All in all it was a fun family day and we look forward to next year's picnic.
