Family Reunion #2

In July, we flew back to St. Louis to get together with my Mom's side of the family at Pere Marquette. It was a whirlwind get together, but loads of fun. We stayed at a great lodge with swimming, picnic tables and hiking.

We ate out at a restaurant with live music. Jacob and Alison played shakers on stage, and Matt and I danced some swing.
We went on an epic "1 mile" hike that was really more like 3. Matt carried Elias on his shoulders almost the whole way. We were the last ones of the pack, but at least we managed to stop for the view the rest of the group somehow missed.

We had the mandatory group photos in our awesome matching shirts.

The goofy one

Or was this the goofy one?

For the afternoon and evening we played with the parachute, waved our flags, hung out under shelter because of the terenchal downpour, made balloon swords, saw Matt's parents, did crafts, had a talent show, and hung spoons from our noses. A rip roaring good time.



Even Ezra enjoyed it!
