Gilbert Reunion

 The third weekend of July Kevin's family had a reuinon down in Kamiah Idaho for his Gilbert side.  It had been about 6 years since we had one of those and it was fun to see everyone.  We had a cute one bedroom cabin that was perfect for our family and had a little kitchenette and pull out couch.  The place we stayed also had a swimming pool that was on depth of 3-4 feet all the way across.  It was perfect for our kids and they could touch the whole time.

 We floated the river on a Saturday morning and it was so much fun.  Kevin and I took Isak and Lucy with us and floated the Snake river with his family.  The river was calm and super low, Isak got out quite a few times and ran around.  It took us about 2 1/2 hours to float it and it was fun to float from person to person and catch up.

 There were some chickens kept at this place we stayed at as well and Edyn's favorite thing to do was to visit them and feed them.  Whenever we were eating or doing anything she would always try to run off to "feed the chickens!".

 Isak and Lucy spent a lot of time in the pool swimming.

 Our family in front of our cabin.  We also attempted a dam tour while here of the Orofino dam which funny enough, my grandpa actually worked on.  Edyn vomited on the windy road up to the dam and did the dam tour shirtless. Quinn started screaming his head off once we were in side that the gate and walking up to the dam so I turned around with him and Lucy followed me (endurance isn' t her strong point).  Since I was exiting from inside the gate a dam employee had to escort me and my screaming baby back. Lucy wanted to turn back around halfway back but I told her know at which point she also had a meltdown.  The poor dam employee, I bet he was so glad when he got rid of us.

Lucy can never, ever pose normally. This is her and her glow stick necklaces.

In the evenings we played games and this was a pretty fun one called reverse charades.  My kids really liked playing it too and it was nice that it was easy for all ages to play.  We had a great time and it was nice to see family for an occasion that was happy and not a funeral!
