it's FAMILY time

We had a reunion of family it seemed last week....

It all started with having Ted (my cousin who married Ryan and I almost 7 years ago) and his wife Deb and their four kids came to visit. We had them over on Wednesday and made them dinner. How wonderful to get to know them again! We had a really good visit even with us ALL in the house oh and my sister and her family joined us also!

Then on Sunday afternoon we went to my cousin Tammy's for a bbq cause a 2nd generation cousin was out from Winnipeg.... he's 23 now and the oldest kid of all us cousins..... so there are 8 boys and only 1 girl, my niece Montana! At one point all the boys were in the carport and it looked like the outsiders.... I took a picture of course. By the end of the day there was the rought housing and alot of them ended up in the pool! Got some GREAT photos.... I'll be busy tonight downloading.....

Gotta love summertime!

Camping

Well it's summertime and the camping has begun. I'm really enjoying the trailer parked at Little Dipper. I have lots of photos of course but I'm not home to upload them. I wanted to store a little something Carson said to Daddy the first weekend.

Ryan took the trailer up as we followed with Ginny and Lyric to start our week vacation.

After helping us set up for the first time, we were relaxing around the fire before Ryan had to head home to work the next day. I said to Ryan you should probably start preparing Carson for your departure.

Ryan "Hey buddy, Daddy's going to have to go home soon"

Carson "why"

Ryan "cause Daddy has to work tomorrow"

Carson in a sweet and innocent voice "oh well that's too bad for you"

okay now I know it's been said before but DAMN, THE THINGS KIDS SAY!
