Family Reunion!!!

This past weekend we went to Idaho for the Haeberle family reunion. It was the best three days with our family. We played games, went down the HUGE slide, watched slide shows, chased salt water taffy raining down from the sky, made jewelry, had our faces painted, the kids had craft time and we laughed until we cried, especially those of us in the kitchen on Sunday night. :)

Camping

Last weekend we made our annual trip to Idaho for the family camp out. We had so much fun being with our family. Some of the highlights were:

- Being with family
- Dancing on the Stage
- Playing in the Creek
- Dad's pancakes for breakfast
- Going for a bike ride
- Finding a HUGE mushroom
- Riding around in the Razor!!
- Playing with cousins
- Healthy family competition in a game of Ladder Golf
- Getting rained on (The picture of the sky is what the clouds looked like just before it dumped)
- Sitting around the campfire
- Roasting marshmallows
- Otter pops
- Lots and lots of laughing

We can't wait until next year.
