reunion day 3

the noodle fighting area was always being used.
we all brought pool noodles and the kids, of course, wanted to fight with them.
we made the open area at the front door the battleground.
I'm pretty sure each uncle/dad had a turn battling with the kids.
I got some pictures of greg, mady and liv fighting.
too fun!


 
we had several wedding projects to do for sara's wedding.
it was exciting to get stuff crossed off our list!






they had a old time arcade game in the basement and it was well used!
I have no idea what games were even on there but the kids played it as much as they could.

reunion day 2

tons of other stuff happened today. 
 

the house was just gorgeous! 


sally give papa the cutest book.
the tickle monster book.
the kids LOVED it.
I think kale had papa read it to him about 100 times.



nana made Rebekah a quilt and it was amazing.
we all wanted to take it home!

 
amy and barry found this "fruit" somewhere on their trip to Minnesota.
they saved it and we cut it open at the cabin.
it was neat.  I think Jeremy ate some of it too.







Jeremy was re enacting sara and cams engagement picture with sara.
as you can tell sara was super excited about it. 

reunion day 2: the lake!

the first thing we did today was go to the lake!
it was beautiful and so cold! 
the kids didn't care and just got in.
joey and Rebekah gave the little kids rides on their paddle boards.
 









looking at the house from the lake.
it was gorgeous!
just a beautiful sky!


liv, mal and mady were so brave and went swimming all over the place!
 







liv loved the paddle board.
she was obsessed with it and convinced joey to let her try.
she got up and paddled around like a pro!
she is an adventurer.

tooth fairy for mal!

once this girl feels a tooth even slighty loose she is all over it.
that tooth is out of there within a couple of days! 
she wiggles the heck out of it and it's gone.
she did it again today!
