Call Family Vaca/Reunion

Our gathering began on a Wednesday night, July 29th, at the farm.

I was a slacker.  We were supposed to set up a tent and sleep outside...we got there at midnight, then slipped our kiddos onto the couch and then we crawled into a cozy bed in the house.

Thursday morning started with breakfast from Kory and Charisse.


And an air show from the airplane that was dusting Dad's fields.  He got SO low!! It was really cool to watch!







Then Krystal started the "Minute to Win it" games.




 






















Here is where Boston decided that Grandma shouldn't win...(he kicked over her tower) he he he







This one got a little violent.  Shane was in everyone's M&M's, except for his own. ;)








Thursday afternoon we played water dodge ball. SO MUCH FUN!!  I really wish I hadn't been too lazy to go get my camera.  However, Krystal's pictures rescued me.  Mom and Dad had set up four little kid pools at all of the bases and then connected the bases with plastic.  It was really slick trying to run to the bases.





Then we got to spend the afternoon/evening playing at the infamous Steadman's water slide.




















That night, after the kids were in bed, we played wally ball.  I have really learned to love that game. We have so much fun out there!

Friday we got up and headed out to go white water rafting.  There were children involved and therefore the "white" part of "white water rafting" was removed.  Again, Krystal saved me with pictures.  Basically all Friday and Saturday was spent on the water.













Then my pictures skip to Saturday...I lost focus on taking pictures.  These are the kiddos on the tailgate.  All the grandkids are starting to be squished on this thing.




Then we had Maycee take a picture of us.  She did a really good job!


Kory always needs a special invitation to come be a part of the picture.


We went to check out the hot springs that Krystal had heard about up near Banks.  This is what we found:


I'm not sure who it was, but one of our crew burned their fingers in the water.  SUPER HOT!!



Thanks for the gathering Calls!!  One day I will get back into taking pictures of everything again.
