Fireworks!!!
It isn't very often that we are actually home to see fireworks on the 4th of July because of the Kerbs Reunion, but on the rare occasion we do get to be home in time to go enjoy some good fireworks. This year was a good year. The fireworks were amazing and not only that, we got to enjoy them with Jana and Leo and their kids, and Grandma!
Kerbs Reunion 2010
Kerbs Reunion...My favorite summer memories for the last 20 years. We have been having this reunion every year for the 4th of July for the last 20 years! I've only missed 2 in all of that time because of serving a mission. This year was held at Baumgartner campground near Fairfield Idaho. It was a great year, great company, great food, and fun activities.
Okay so one of the activities was a watermelon eating contest, way to go Leo, he thoroughly enjoyed every bite of that watermelon.
They had lots of fun state fair activities going on for all of us like the balloon popping, fish pond, cake walk, ring toss, etc...everybody's favorite though was Madam Noitall! Shelley gave us all our fortunes and I loved to watch the kids faces when she told them something that they didn't know she knew about themselves. Pretty fun!
Oh the hot springs! Felt so good!!! Nice warm water, Abby loved it and fell asleep in the water with her daddy holding her...It's nice to be in nice hot water when you've been camping and feel all dirty.
Everyone who joined us for a dip in the hot springs!
I think Melissa enjoyed going under to see all of the dead flies in the water. She said it was beautiful!
Talk about beautiful, there is just something about being in the mountains enjoying beautiful sunsets that I love. The particular sunset really caught my eye. The colors are amazing! Not to mention the landscape against the sky...I just love it.
I seriously love this picture...Dakota is such a great big brother and is always helping out and loving his baby sister, Abby...so sweet!
I really loved this reunion and I think it's because of the Olsen Reunion turnout that I now appreciate this reunion all the more. How close this family is and the love that is shown between everyone, I look forward to this every year!!
