We were thankful for the chance to spend time with all of our children and grandchildren at a quick family reunion in Utah at the end of August. There were a few glitches (so is life) but overall we had a great time. We couldn't even complain about chasing grandchildren and balloons as we tried to eat dinner at Red Robin one evening!
We played at the lake. Nathan was so proud of the fact that he could paddle the inflatable kayak all by himself.

Maggie took her first ride in the kayak. Matthew paddled like a pro.
Becca chased the geese,
jumped off the dock with a little help from Aunt Sariah,
and splashed in the water like a wild thing.
Matthew swam after some ducks. He's fearless with that life jacket!
We laughed, visited, and shared a meal with extended family at Grandma and Grandpa's house.
I got to play with Becca and Maggie on the playground while Grandpa watched Coach Brian, Matthew and team win a game of soccer.
Becca wasn't thrilled with the idea of having strangers help her on the play equipment. Grandma came to the rescue!
Great food, toys and balloons contributed to the festive mood at another family gathering we attended at Gordon and Sandy's home.
We had a memorable visit with Grandma at the care center. She loved seeing so many familiar faces. Owen entertained the residents as he chased balloons, balls and cats.
What a blessing to get to spend time with such a fine family!
