Summer updates: Family Reunion

In the beginning of July we were able to go to Oliver BC, in the Okanagan Valley and attend our Ness Family Reunion. We had a great time visiting with lots of family, there were lots of cousins that the kids hadn't met, and getting to enjoy time with cousins that they already love.  There were quite a lot of kids there.  The kids all really enjoyed the face painting and maze that were there.  We played games and got to have balloon animals made. It was such a great time for the kids, which means that the parents enjoyed it as well!

I loved Macartneys request to be a vampire bat.

Amber and I testing out our hoola skills.  Mine were pretty low, Amber was pretty good!

Thatcher was a great Frankenstein!

Gainor Family tug-of-war, girls against boys!

Paul was so great, there were many people that didn't see too much of him as he spent his time patiently waiting with napping kids while I visited for a few days straight.

Our troop!

The Wigg bunches!



We enjoyed a great vacation.  We ate lots of cherries, played in the pool, went to church together, played with cousins and just had a great time.  There were a few evenings that we stayed out visiting and catching up late into the evening.  It was so great!
