It was SO good to see all my cousins and brothers and sister at this reunion! I'm really glad Becky ultimately decided to make the drive by herself only being one month post partum. Catching up with cousins and their spouses was a lot of fun, and of course, watching all the kids play together. The food and company were great, as well as having Grandpa Pettingill come listen to what all his children and grandchildren have been up to the past little while.
The first day Zander was all about the fire. He played in it all day long. Lucas was a bit cranky that day, and that may even be an understatement. He loved playing on the swing and throwing rocks. the second day the kids played in the creek which they loved, but it was really cold. Brad took the kids on a train ride and a fishing trip, and Zander got to sleep in a tent with his cousins. Lucas and I were in the trailer with grandma and grandpa. I didn't sleep a wink since all Lucas did was wake up and bounce around on the bed all night. I think next year's reunion will be a little more fun for me when I'm not pregnant and I can let the kids go a little bit more. I am so thankful for mom, Becky, and my sisters in law for helping me care for the boys and keep an eye on them.
And getting to see baby Ezra was a treat. All Lucas wanted to do was hold him forever. Both boys love babies, so I'm anxious to see how it all goes when baby sister arrives in six weeks.
Becky and I took the kids to Daisy's for a little treat before they left to go home. These kids are just the cutest!
