July 2008 Reunion

As always we have a very successful family reunion. Good food, good company, fun activities, more good food there just isn't much that tops summer fun. Many of us camped this year and that made for interesting sleeping arrangements, I learned a lot about camping with my kids. For instance they don't go to sleep in tents, there is no limit on how many marshmallows one toddler can consume, sticky things don't wash off easily, and they love camping. Bless my parents for ever taking us anywhere as kids. I remember seeing Mount Rushmore in a camper. We all squished up around the windows so we could see while we drove, back in the day when riding in the camper was half the fun of camping. I can't wait to take my kids to Yellowstone National Park, buffalo bill museum (Montana-these are the trips I remember going on as a kid) ohh, and lake Cushman. Someday Disneyland cause it's one of those events that has eluded me all my life. Yeah for kids. I also loved our trips to Vantage. lots of stories, good times.
