We just returned from our Carson (Dianne's family) family reunion down by Cedar City, UT. It was so much fun to see family and how our lives have changed from footloose and fancy free to parenthood and chaos! We love it.
I don't think I saw much of Hunter - he convinced Grandpa LeGrand to let him use his pocket knife so he was carving wood or exploring with my cousin's son Justin the entire duration! The final evening next to the campfire, he had a stick he was carving for marshmellows....my grandmother didn't think it was a good idea and thought he had been waving it around too much...so she took it when he got too close. In order to soften the blow - my Aunt Kathy took him to her lap and said he would get it back later, but Grandpa came as well and said "honey, you shouldn't play with sticks, you can poke your eye out." which then triggered a whole new conversation with nurse aunt kathy- "where does your eye go if it gets poked out?" was hunter's question....it turned into quite the conversation!
Gwennie just wandered aimlessly looking for people and dirt. She charmed everyone.
Tyler mostly tried to eat sticks dirt or whatever rock looked tasty!
We attempted to wade in the river/creek/stream water and did find a little birds nest with babies in it under the bridge - that was exciting! However, the leeches all over our feet when we got out were not so exciting!

I sure do miss you guys! Maybe some day I will get a job and be able to come up there again for a visit.
Hey make a new post...I need to see some more pictures of my baby's cousins. Love ya!!!
I think I figured out how to attach a picture to my comments so I'm trying it out on your blog.
I feel like I don't even have a clue what's going on in your life these past 7 days. No posts...I feel so disconnected!
