More Family Reunions!



It feels like we have a LOT of family reunions, we do but we don't, really. This year we have had three, one was my dad's Grandma's, the Reeve's family reunion which was held at the park by our house and only lasted a few hours. Then we had T's dads side that we have every year. And then we had T's moms side, which is what this post is about. We could have a few more reunions and then that's all we would do all summer long. We should have some in the winter time.



This reunion has become an annual event and has been at the City of Rocks for the last few years. We have stayed in the same campground, pictured above, next to the Sisters for those you know the area. The campground is great, there are rocks for the kids to climb all over, while they could get lost and I'm surprised that they didn't, they would have to go out of their way to get lost. And the best part is that it's all by itself, so we can be as loud as we want, or as loud as our kids tend to be.



This year it was cold and it rained on us! We ended up spending a chunk of the time at T's grandpas house who lives just outside of the City of Rocks in Almo, Idaho. That wasn't too bad, we rode the atvs around and raced around the house. Though it was too cold to go swimming and I was actually looking forward to that. Which is strange because Im not a big fan of swimming, it's just not that fun, maybe for like ten minutes.



While they look a lot alike, they are almost nothing alike. Both of them are hilarious in their own way and they both are very much boys.



This year we did some rock climbing, well the kids did. So we have been going to the City of Rocks for the last 4-5 years and we never gone rock climbing. The City of Rocks is known for its rock climbing and people travel from all over to climb there. This year we (buzz) brought his gear for the kids and let get use to climbing. B was a little nervous the first time but quickly relaxed, at least going up. Coming down, Z was about the only kid who felt comfortable, the rest of them wanted buzz to help them. And Cash money, well he made it as high as he is in the picture above! He'll climb rocks left and right but once we put the harness on him he froze up and wouldn't go anywhere.

I'm kinda a Big Deal on Twitter

Haha! I have a few other blog posts in the works and hopefully I'll post those soon. In the meantime I thought I would share my fame with you all. City Weekly posted a blog quoting one of my tweets. I know some of you have tried twitter and most of you have not. Im addicted! It saves me a whole lots of time, the people I follow are always posting links to news and other items that I no longer have to search for.

Anyways, my tweet was about how I wish Rep. Mathason was more of a man like Barny Frank. There is a great clip on the link above to reference what I'm talking about. I agree with Frank that it's too bad that congress is not debating a single payer health care system.
