I’ve heard that siblings, more than anyone else in your life, will have the most influence on the person you become. If you were to know my siblings you would know that is true! But in my family it’s not just the siblings that have had, and continue to have, a massive influence in my life it’s: the cousins, aunts and uncles, parents, in-laws and then whomever else we decide to throw in the mix. Honestly my huge family is AWESOME!!! And when I say it is a huge family, I mean H.U.G.E!!! And it’s great, because we all have different qualities, opinions, beliefs and interests, giving each of us as individuals the opportunity to grow into the people we must be, all while having the love and support of our family.
Last month I was lucky enough to spend a little time with most (sadly there were some faces missing) of my amazing family at a two day reunion in Wyoming and to sum that weekend up it was: EPIC! For me, it was a dose of much needed family chaos! -CHAOS!!! But sadly, because of the short time and all the people, I didn’t get a chance to really visit with everyone or capture their candid moments. Sorry Family! These are the moments I was able to capture and a few memories I’ve walked away with-Enjoy!
Before heading to the lodge we went to pick up the Pulled
Pork and Lamb for dinner that night, and Eliza and I actually got to pull it!!!
Just hanging out
Seeing cousins and greeting them
Scoping out the area
Paying in the Pond
A good time for a relaxing read
No cell service and slow WIFI?!?!?! How will these
young boys ever survive?!
My happy happy birthday buddy!
Needed some “quiet time” so I went and took some
landscape pictures
In my family we like to chase rabbits, it’s a
must
Volleyball: a great family pass time-for all
ages
Yay, DIRT!!!
Age gap-smap! What ever the age you can bond
with a cousin!
Things are staring to get intense!
Morning walk and learning to skip stones- gotta
love the skills the in-laws bring along when the join the family!
FEET!
We found a REALLY little toad
Its not a family party till someone loses their
pants
Jake feeding Michela
Best caption?
In a tunnel. On an adventure!
Rock climbing!
Ben giving us a crash course
I assume the conversation that led to this point
went along the lines of: “Hey, think we could break that rock?”-“Yeah. Lets give
it a try!”
-It didn't work.
Series of silliness!
(For more rock climbing photos and in color, click on the video: )
Talent Show!!!
Sibling Flash Mob! - wait what?! OMG!!!
Our new favorite pass time? Survival bracelet tying.
Poker.
Family! (missing those who couldn’t make it for
the weekend and those who just weren’t there for the photo.)
Goofing off and candids while packing up
Went back to my parents house for a rest…
