Allen family reunion


Last Saturday we had a great time at the Allen family reunion. The food, weather, and company were all great. This was our last big outing of the summer and was a great one to end with. The kids were in the water all day long. One of their favorite games to play in the pond is "sink it." All of us Moms are always nervous the raft is going to come up and hit someone, but it hasn't happened yet. They all get on one end of the raft and try to bury it in water until everyone slides off into the water. They can play for hours!

Peg and Rudy's house looked awesome for the reunion. Marsha and crew put so much time into getting things ready - they aren't going to know what to do with themselves this week now that it's over!

Aaron organized a game of kick ball. It was the perfect game to involve a lot of people. Everyone had a lot of fun playing, cheering, and being together. Apparently, Aaron even entertained everyone with some acrobatics, but I missed that part!

I couldn't resist posting this picture of Naomi. She doesn't like to have her knees touch the grass.

That last picture is so cute and funny! Preston used to hate to touch grass too. Now he's ok as long as he has shoes on :-)
