Family Reunion

This past weekend Vern and I went down to Kadacome Basin for his family reunion. My dad came with us along with Preston. (I wasn't about to leave him alone all weekend) My niece Cadence came as well. We left Friday and got there late. We set up camp and I passed out with the little ones. On Saturday I woke early with the dogs and the Babies. I made breakfast and when everyone was finally awake we meet up withe the other family's and set off on a hike. We made it back to camp and the kids and I took a nap. We mad sandwiches for lunch.

Saturday night we had the famous Dutch Oven cook off. Summer and I made a dish we got from her mom. It took two hours to cook and at the end everyone loved it. We tied for first and plays Rock, Paper, Scissors to determine the winner. We won! after that we had the talent show. I left early and took the kids to bed. I fell asleep too.

Sunday we all gathered back together to make a huge Breakfast. Bacon, eggs, hash browns. and Pancakes. Yum!! We left shortly after that. Dad the kids and I left first. We were not even an hour out when some ones cooler lid hit our car. It would have been a horrible accident if dad hadn't reacted the way he did. We were very thankful that we had said a prayer before we left. The kids slept through the whole thing. We got home around five and i was asleep by seven. Taking car of two toddlers all weekend out in the blistering hot sun is tuff work.
