If we had shirts for our reunion that year that is what they could have said.
I think we had our family reunion camping in Maryland on THE HOTTEST days of the summer that year.
The first day all of the adults except John, myself, and my oldest brother went tubing with the oldest grandkids, while we walked around Harper's Ferry a little bit and entertained the rest of the grandkids. It ended up being a really long time, and I wish we had put our swimsuits on and played in that river!!

Jeryl excited about the day! |
 |
Notice that everyone doesn't look too hot yet... |
 |
This little bus ride was like heaven with the AC |
The next day we spent the day at the lake.
 |
It's funny because my dad and Marilyn had her family reunion t-shirts on, and Marianne was like, "Ummm.. you're at the wrong reunion." |

Jonah taking a morning nap |
 |
I don't have a picture of it, but Laurajane and I had so much fun swimming together - or trying to fit in the same float together. So fun!! |

My sister in laws |

Jonah taking an afternoon nap? |
 |
Laurajane loves Jonah |
The next day we did some sightseeing
 |
You can see my dad back there in the background - he ROASTED his legs on the tubing trip so he was pretty miserable the rest of the reunion. |
 |
All the grandkids except Jonah are in this picture, Everett is the only grandbaby born since this reunion. |
 |
I'm not sure what tourist spot we had stopped at, but Jonah was asleep and I wasn't going to take him out and all the other people that thought it was too hot to go look at congregated in my van for a little snack. |
 |
I think she was chewing some chips....
|
That night, my uncle who was in Afghanistan arranged for us to have dinner at
The Bavarian Inn. He had wanted to do something for us since our Grandpa had passed away, and he is just super nice like that.
It was super nice, they had prepared a section closed off just for our family and he had arranged a special menu for us to choose from and everything.
 |
Jeryl looks like he may have just gotten in trouble or something... |
 |
The whole family - we asked a random person just coming out of the restuarant to take our picture, however he might have had a few too many to drink to take our picture in focus... |
The next day most of us toured and shopped in Harpers Ferry, and John and Jon went fishing at the river at Harpers Ferry, then we all met up for lunch. That day while we shopped, there was a store that had some kittens in it, well, my sisters family ended up adopting those kitties! They had the best souvenir from their reunion.
That night was skit night - look how sweaty everyone looks!
 |
This picture reminds me of how much work it is to go camping with little kids. Here we tried to make our life easier and just keep him in the tent... |
 |
Nice undies Mallary |
 |
They did a Just Dance skit |
It was so fun to be with everyone - though very, very hot, and a little stressful for me to camp with little kids. I love my family! Trevan was watching me upload these pictures, and he just said, "Oh, I remember that, it was so fun!" That's what I like to hear!
