We got to spend three days with this crazy bunch last week. Lily had a blast playing with her cousins. She grew up right before our eyes trying to keep up with the big girls. The cousins got along better at this reunion than they ever have.
Lily, Annie, and their "ginger" cousins. What adorable redheads we have in this family.
Our view of heaven - right off the back porch of the cabin.
We did some shooting and gun safety. Lily liked the ear protection and the bigger guns.
Jeremy organized a family 5k race. Here are the few who were brave enough to run it. My brother-in-law Jared won this year. My sister-in-law and I somehow missed a turn off and ended up running a shorter race than everyone else. The sad thing is, we still got lapped by almost everyone.
Jeremy had fun waterskiing and riding jet skis.
Lily and Annie swam until they cried from exhaustion. Then we took a nap and swam some more. Lather, rinse, repeat over three days.
Lily liked riding in the paddle boat. She especially liked being driven to the floating dock and climbing out to play with her cousins. They danced and played games out there all day long.
Annie was a fearless swimmer. She charged right into the water every chance she got. She like swimming with and without a life jacket. The water was so warm. Mommy was happy to swim too.
And here we are looking a little more well behaved. It was so great to be together. We really missed our youngest brother Josh and his family. Hopefully next year we can get everyone together. We played, hiked, watched Olympics, swam, ate.....it was a packed couple of days. Thanks Mom and Dad for the beautiful cabin and wonderful family! We are so blessed to be Halls.
