Family Reunion 2012

 Last year my parents rented a condo up in Eden for the family to stay in for the weekend.  They decided to have our family reunion at the same place again this year.  The picture above is my mom telling the kids a story about one of our ancestors.  She told one each day and then had something special hidden for each child to find that had to do with the story.  The kids looked forward to finding their special bags!

 There are some ponds around the condo and when Carter found out we were going to the same spot, he was uberly excited!  The first morning a bunch of us went for a walk to look for critters and bugs.

 Cami was instructed to provide shade for the bugs and snakes.  I'm not sure who instructed her to do so, but she diligently obeyed :)

I wish I would have taken more pictures but we also played pool and ping pong, watched movies, did lots of eating, and played games.  Thanks Mom and Dad for a fun weekend!
