Family Reunion


This afternoon we went up to a family reunion for my mom's family. I wish we got together with this family a lot more like we used to. It's always so fun to get together with them. When we got there the kids (some big kids...aka adults) were playing with water guns. My kids found some water guns and joined in the fun. Gabby thought it was fun to shoot a tree with water.
Next we ate a catered dinner of ribs, chicken, potatoes, salad, fruit, and double fudge brownies and ice cream.
As we were finishing up dinner my uncle offered Chris $0.50 to stick his head in the bucket of ice water that the drinks had been in. He declined so my uncle offered him $0.55, he declined that too. So, my uncle had everyone chanting for Chris to dunk his head in the bucket. Eventually Chris gave in and dunked his head.

After Chris dunked his head everyone started chanting for my Uncle Dennis to dunk his head since he had started it on Chris. I didn't get a picture of him dunking his head...but he gave in too. Roman thought it looked like a REALLY fun game so he wanted to dunk his head too.
Dunking heads turned into the fun event at the reunion and a bunch of people were doing it after that. They convinced my Uncle Don, and my Uncle Dale to dunk their heads...and most of the kids dunked their heads. I'm sure it helped with the 100 degree weather outside.
We had so much fun see family, playing with cousins, and catching up with family we don't see enough.
