Call it a clan, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family.
Whatever you call it, whoever you are, you need one....Jane Howard
"Your most important friendships should be with your own brothers and sisters and with your father and mother. Love your family. Be loyal to them. Have a genuine concern for your brothers and sisters. Help carry their load so you can say, like the lyrics of that song, 'He ain't heavy; he's my brother.' " Ezra Taft Benson

Play Time.....

I assigned myself the activities and crafts for the reunion. Of coarse I had help from Mom and Tiphaine though....
Here are a few fun things we did....



Water guns from the treasure hunt!!



Grandma had a small pool in the back yard for the little kids to splash and play in...



Hannah had to decide if she wanted to get it....she did not want to be splashed!!



When it was only Hannah and Deni in the pool, it was great!!
Not much splashing!!



The kids made rackets out of PVC pipe....


Deni still loving the pool!!



Dad cutting PVC pipe for the marshmallow shooters!!



Zach hanging out!



Keevin finished making his gun....with a scope on it, too!



Daniel enjoyed the shooting of the marshmallows....there were always plenty around!!!



The younger girls made things out of the magic nuddles....
They are made of cornstarch and they stick together with a very small amount of wetness.


Emily and her creations!



Daniel and Zach with their marshmallow guns!






Hailey finished her crown!!



Cayson, Jaxson and Zach spraying their guns....and making strange graffiti on the old tennis courts!





Jessica and Audrey scrubbed down one of the bathrooms....
Merri maids they were!!



Making washer necklaces!!



Zach, Emily and Keevin putting their rubberbands on their rackets!




Game time!! If the wind would have stopped blowing the kids would not have had to run so far to get their balls!!


Cayson with his racket!



Audrey and Rachel working on their necklaces!




These two were so funny together....They found some of Grandma's old sun hats....




Hailey finished necklace!



Kevin loved to man the grill!!



Daniel enjoying himself as usual!!



Zach and grandma...


Great burger, Dan!!

Thus ended our first full day.......
