This summer my moms side of the family had a cousins reunion. For the most part it was my mom and her cousins. My grandma, who is the matriarch of our family now was there along with her brother Uncle John. They are a hoot when they get together! I can't believe how much my 93 year old grandma still travels. The reunion was held out in Sandpoint ID on the lake. One of my moms cousins has a house out there that we used. It was a beautiful and hot weekend! We used the boat a few times and went tubing, Easton LOVED it and even went alone a few times. The boys had fun playing with some of the other kids that were there. Some of them came from across the country and some just from over in Seattle. While we were all together we did family history. Each person there wrote down the names and dates of all their children and grandchildren and it was compiled and sent to each of us in attendance. It was interesting to see the difference in those who were raised LDS and stayed active and those who hadn't been. I am so thankful to be among those who were active in the church. I am so grateful for that gift in my life.
Here are some photos from the weekend

This was the BEST part of the weekend... 93 year old grandma swimming in the water. At first, she just was walking right up the dock as if she was going to jump in! Everybody freaked out and we helped her walk in from the beach. It was pretty special to be out there with her.
Little Easton on the tube. He loved it.
