Family Reunion

For the 24th of July we had a family reunion and had such a great time. We were able to see some family that I have not seen for about 14 years, because we are all scattered from South Carolina to Nevada. It was fun to see and catch up with everyone.
Our weekend was packed full of so many fun things. We missed the first day of water games, horse riding, shooting, grits and eggs, and hanging out, which we were bummed about. While we were there we rode in the parade on a family float, went to the rodeo, Jake ran a 5k, had kids crafts, ate great food, played games, played volleyball, which is not the same being 9 months pregnant ( I found that out after my first jump), talked about all of our good memories of Grandma and Grandpa, and sat around visiting. I always love listening to my dad and his siblings talk and reminisce. They are so funny and are always cuttin' fool in their southern way. My dad has always been funny, but his brothers and sister seem to pull even more out of him. One of my uncles had done a lot of genealogy research and he discovered in our line around the 1400s, one of our ancestors was a Jester in King Edward IV's court. (family... correct me if my facts are a little off) That would explain where all of the jokes and foolin' come from in our family. We had such a great time and hope to do it again in another 5 years.

Thanks everyone for the surprise baby shower.
