Weed Family Reunion

Well the "Weed" Family Reunion was actually in June, but I suppose I'm better to post late than never! All the Weed kids and their families were here the last week in June. We went to Bear Lake for 2 days, went to Lagoon twice, went swimming, had a girl's day out and a guy's day out without kids, and also had a nice dinner out with just the adults. We had a great time and here are some of the photos.

Here are all the older cousins, ready for a day of rides and HEAT! They all made these reunion shirts while we were at Bear Lake. Unfortunately Rilee forgot hers, but was able to get all the tears out of her system the day before so she was still a happy camper at Lagoon.

It's so fun for Rilee now that she can actually ride all the rides. I have been surprised about how gutsy she is. She will ride anything! She is having a screamin' good time here with cousins Morgan and Maryn.


We thought Cameron might be able to start veering out of the kiddie area this year, but no such luck. We tried to puff his hair up, but it just wasn't quite enough. Hopefully next year!

Lilly cried in terror on some of the rides, but was usually fine by the end of it when she realized she wasn't going to die. For some reason the picture uploading stopped working right now so I can't get one of her on here. But come on people - I have done 2 posts within a month - - that's gotta be some kind of record for me!

Stewart Family Reunion at East Canyon

It's been so long since I've posted anything that I almost didn't remember my password! We had fun up at East Canyon for the annual reunion with Chad's family. I said "Stewart" reunion, but I guess it's actually "Anderson". Our kids went up with Grandma and Grandpa Stewart while Chad and I went to a funeral in Paris, Idaho for the wife of Chad's co-worker, Christina Mourant. She was a young mom (28) with 2 little kids so it was very sad to have her pass on, but it was nice to attend her funeral and honor her life. Someone had commented to her bishop, "Some people are just too good to stay on this earth". And she really was a genuinely good person. Chad and I drove up to East Canyon after the services to meet up for the big reunion bbq. Here are some pictures of the kids having fun at the pool with cousins.

Sara and Gracie with Rilee. Abby is also snoozing peacefully in the background.

Lilly must have had a little too much fun - -to the point of exhaustion!

And here we have Cameron and Grace, bein' great pals. "Thanks" to the Anderson's for putting together the reunion, and "thanks" to Grandma and Grandpa Stewart for taking our kids for the day!
