We started off going to Nick's Aunt Toni's house for dinner--family came from Tennessee and Spokane, and other parts of Utah to join us!
Preston knocking at Toni's door
Preston meeting his "cousin" Keely...he wasn't sure of her at this point, but he warmed up pretty quickly.
Ashleigh, of course, loved to play with all the little kids and attached to Keely right away!
Some of the gals--Aunt Ami, J, Aunt Lori, and Natalie
Uncle Dan, Nick, Corey, Brinley, Uncle Matt, and Christopher
The food was all set up outside--hot dogs, hamburgers, potato salad, pasta salad, sweet-spinach salad, chips, cookies, etc....YUMMY food!!!
1/2 of the group eating picnic-style on the lawn. It was a little too warm for my liking, but otherwise it was a lot of fun just chatting and getting reacquainted again.

What is it about kids always getting food on their faces when they eat?!?!

The next day (Saturday) we went to Willow Park. It is a great park where you can reserve areas for parties. We had SO much fun (complete with NO allergies for me!!! YAY!)
The kids riding to the park--Ash and Preston
After 3 days of driving, Betsie and Josh and the kids arrived late the night before so this was the first time getting to see their family! Thankfully, the girls liked me right away. :-)
Jennidee and Meg (I think this is jennidee) Lol.

I took a bunch of random pictures of the groups at the park. :-)

This was seriously SO much fun for the kids!!!

We all got to decorate shirts and this is Juli's--it was a good example of what we could do to our shirts! It was FUN decorating our shirts. The funny thing was, it was SO windy the whole day so when we would go and spray our shirts with the coloring if you weren't up wind, you would get colored on...plus it was funny watching people try to keep their shirts from moving while they sprayed them with the wind trying to blow them around. It was quite entertaining!
I stole this cute cute picture of the Kunz sisters
Lori, Ami, Juli, and Toni
Another random group of people--doing bottle rockets. SO much fun!
We did goldfish races too--Nick won a fish. :-)
Conner and Preston raced each other.
Conner won the first race and Preston won the second race.
Then we had a Wahoo tournament and the winner-cousin David-won a gag gift--huge decorative lighted glass grapes. Lol. Which he turned down. :-) Can you tell we love to play Wahoo?Conner won the first race and Preston won the second race.
David-the winner-is in Blue
Nick's cousin Jessie also put together a bunch of Minute to Win it games for us to play. I didn't get over there to take pictures of it, but it sure was funny watching people bounce up and down with a kleenex box full of ping-pong balls on their butt! :-)
And then, sadly, it was time to go....we had SO much fun!!!!!! It really was a FUN FUN reunion!!!
I took a couple videos of the bottle rockets and fish races. Enjoy!
