Project 365: Week 27

We went to Utah for two family reunions. One was for my dad's extended family (including all of my aunts, uncles, cousins, and their kids, and my dad's cousins and some of their kids-- about 90-100 people in all) at my Uncle Blake and Aunt Melony's house in Holladay. The other was just for my family (my parents, my siblings and spouses, and all the grandkids) in Park City.

Since it was such a busy week with so much family there are a LOT of pictures.

Pool party at Blake and Melony's house. Emma loved it (she even fell asleep while I was holding her in the pool) and Will (who has been very anti-pool this summer) refused to even put on his life jacket because he thought it meant he had to go swimming.

Baby Ryan, I mean Jasper, my newest nephew that looks just like my brother.

My cousin's daughter totally passed out on the couch.

Cabin at Park City with my whole family (all 26 of us).

Emma and Grandpa (he fed her fruit snacks so obviously they became best friends)

Jasper again (always smiling).

A family that puzzles together...

Family picture day. 

I'm pretty sure Emma changed from baby to little girl overnight.

My (definitely almost teenager) niece Layla.

The plan was to spend most of the day at Jordanelle Reservoir waterskiing, wakeboarding, and tubing.

Taylor and I were the last ones to get to the lake and while we waited for the boat to come back Grandma took some of the kids to throw rocks in the water.

And then it rained.

So instead of taking the boat out again everyone got off and hurriedly huddled under the easy-up. We had about 10 chairs, passed around blankets, towels and sweatshirts and waited out the rain until we decided to eat lunch and go home.

Ikey, Will, Brooke, and Grandma entertained us all with animal charades (Will's new favorite game)

I got to sit next to sweet Evie snuggling with her mom.

Hamilton Family Olympics! Including relay race and freeze tag/scavenger hunt.

Before the games Taylor had to make a phone call while we were waiting for everyone else to get there. Emma saw him, waddled over to him and sat on his lap.
