The first day we spent at Rancho Seco. The weather was perfect. So nice the women just sat and visited. Only the dads went in the water after their Top Gun Volleyball game. Ok, so they were white and skinny instead of tan and buff but it was still fun to watch them. It was the beginning of alot of volleyball games. That night we went to Stewart and Kendra's for dinner, a fun kickball game, and the beginning of alot of late nights.
Carter LOVED the sand!! By the time he was done taking one little handful at a time, the blanket was full of sand. It kept him entertained for a long time!! 
The next day we woke up early and went to Dream Xtreme to play on the Flow Rider and the huge wall to wall trampolines. It was alot of fun. Brooke even did the flowrider by herself this time. She was so shy about it because everyone was cheering her on. She just hid her head in her hands and rode the wave like nothing. Gary took a video but it didn't turn out well. I was bummed because it was so cute!! After that we had a group that went to the temple, a group that went to RPM (race cars) and group that went bowling and a group that headed back to my house to relax before more partying began.%5B1%5D.jpg)

First place, way to go honey!!
Eventually everyone made it back to my house and we had a great game of water balloon volleyball and of course several more rounds of regular volleyball. At night we had a Rockband tournament. Let me tell you, some of these teenagers really know how to play!! It was pretty impressive how good they were and how pathetic the parents were!! This is Abby, my cousin Nate's little girl. She was the sweetest smartest best talker 2 year old ever. She didn't even thow fits when mean Brooke kept taking toys from her. Thanks for watering my trees Abby!
Saturday we spent the day at Steven & Merrily's pool, alot more volleyball and ALOT of soft serve icecream. Everyday the weather was perfect, the food was good and the company was fabulous. This is Caleb my cousin Melanies baby. By coincidence we dressed our boys in the same outfit!! Too Cute!
Officially the reunion ended on Saturday. But we had several that stuck with us for another day so we took a trip to Discovery Kingdom. We split into two groups. The Roller Coaster Riders and the moms with kids. Thanks to Steven & Merrily who hung out and helped me with my kids. The minute I walked in the gate I almost turned right around. But thanks to their help we got through the initial melt down (results of going to bed super late several nights in a row!) and ended up having a great time. Brooke loved the Whale show. I enjoyed watching her more and missed most of the show.

We had such a great time this week. Thanks to everyone for driving all the way here to spend time with us. Can't wait for Yosemite next year!!
