Family Reunion

Last weekend part of my family was able to have a mini reunion here in Meridian. My Uncle Bob and Aunt Shirley came from Iowa. His son, my cousin Matt and his wife Brandi, and their family came from Minnesota. And my Uncle Tom and Aunt Sheila came from Arizona. It was so wonderful to see everyone! We hadn't seen Tom and Sheila for 10 years, or Matt's family for almost 14. It was awesome to meet his kids, and everyone to meet ours. There are some cousins that are the same ages too, so that made it really fun.

Friday we met at a park and had a picnic so the kids could get out and play. All of the boys (including the biggest boys!) had fun throwing a football around, and the little ones played in the splash pad. That night we had dinner and a great visit at my sister's house.

 

Saturday we all went out to the Old Idaho Penitentiary museum, which was really cool. Later that evening we had a BBQ here at our house and had another really nice visit.

 

 

Sunday morning we went and had breakfast and swimming with everyone before Matt's family had to leave. Later in the afternoon we went out to Black Canyon Reservoir for a picnic dinner and last visit before everyone else had to leave early Monday morning. It was so awesome to see everyone, and get to spend so much time with them. I am hoping we can see everyone who wasn't able to come soon.
