Oregon Coast and Lake house

We had so much fun on the Oregon coast for our family reunion.

We flew kites...

We made a volcano on the beach! Watch

out little town!!!

We played stick in the hole, a game we used to play

with our Gramps at a cabin up in the mountains of

Utah. It was still one of the funnest games ever, even

if it wasn't quite the same with out the man that taught

it to us.

Courtney was the last to get her smore, and that is the

time we remembered to get the camera. So we tooked lots of pics of her! She is a rather cute subject!

All the kids got to be Uncle Chads pillow, they loved it! Uncle Chad also impressed Carter and disturbed the rest of us with his freaky eye tricks.

The boys decided to have a rock skipping contest. Averi

wanted to do it too! Dade won. I don't remember how many skips it took to beat the competition.

We had a competitive game of kickball. I didn't mean to take out the camera lady on a cane! Sorry sister!

I was having fun with Photoshop elements and made this pic of Dan holding Court. I thought it turned out cool, so then I tried the one of him putting her in the water to wash her hands. He is sure a good daddy!

It was a nice warm day, oh wait, no it wasn't notice the bundled up Aunt and Uncle! Of course that didn't stop Averi and Carter, they were the only ones that braved the cold and swam anyway! :)

We had sooo much fun, I can't wait to go back. That house was WONDERFUL! The lake was great, I have even more pictures to post, it had a hot tub, we played what time is it Mr. Wolf, volleyball, hung out together, had an awesome talent/skit show. Every night we played a different game with just the grown ups, cards, mafia, etc. I sure enjoy my family! There were no "issues" for all 5 days between the kids or the adults. Which I think is pretty impressive considering we were together for 5 days in a three bedroom house! We had 10 adults, and 13 kids. It was FANTASTIC!!!!!
