Family Reunion Time

We went camping at North Fork, Mustang flats

for my family Gibson Reunion.

The kids were so good about helping me and

Brandon put up the tent.

Even Owen had fun pumping up the air mattress.

After camp was set up we went on a small

hike. And of course the kids picked what they

called flowers for me!

Later the girls painted rocks.

We made a camp fire and made yummy smores!

Owen usually has stranger anxiety with everyone

but his siblings and me and Brandon but he was

so exhuasted he just chilled in Grandpa Avery's

lap until he could not stay awake any longer.

The girls love their aunt Kami!

Owen would not take a nap. It was too loud

in the tent. And so hot. But at least he was happy.

It was hot during the day and a bit cold at night.

I worried about the girls being warm so I piled

so many blankets over their sleeping bags.

I pulled Owen in with me a couple hours before

we got up. I'm so glad Brandon is always hot. He

gave me his sweat shirt to sleep with which was over

my long sleeve shirt. I'm always cold and did not

sleep very much because it was cold. I guess I don't

like camping as much as I use to. It was more fun

and less work when it was just me and Brandon!

Riley was so excited that her tooth came out

when she was brushing her teeth. I'm glad we were

going home that day so she could put it under

her pillow at home!

The girls loved making paper rockets and

specially loved shooting them off. They would

launch them over and over again. It had to

be pretty tiring running to get the rocket

back and forth. To bad I can't get them to

be so willing to get stuff for me at home!

Owen thought he was so big sitting at the

table with his sisters eating Cheetos.
