Family reunion times started earlier this month as soon as The Francisco posse rolled into town. We love spending time with them when they come and stay in the summer.
Then we spent the afternoon at South Fork. And an outdoor movie/sleep out at Grampa's
Calvin managed a S'more in his hair and on his face and his shirt
They slept over and came to church with us twice while they were here. Taking 9 kids to church isn't exactly a cake walk, but we managed and learned and persevered.
Day 1 of the official reunion started with the kids 1 mile run.
Everybody finished with a smile!
This baby conference was so adorable on the kitchen floor. The conference agenda was all about nap times and how to get parents to value them during the upcoming reunion. (Julia wasn't there, but they took her needs into account)
Then some of the adults ran a 5K - I ran and enjoyed it, best run in recent memory.

Day 2- headed up to the lot to run chainsaws for 3 hours ⛰🌲🙉
Becca managed a nap in my new baby carrier
Day 3- we went to a local pond for swimming and picnic then back to HQ for Carnival night! We had a bounce house and face painting and photo booth and more!
One of the booths was driving nails into this wood for one of Jethro's art projects. These two loved it the most
At the end of the night it was time to say goodbye to the Francisco's and get some sleep. It was so much fun, thanks to the Oliphants for planning it all
