Family Reunion

This weekend was the my dad’s parents family reunion. I got to see all of my cousins, some of whom I have not seen for ages. We went up to the Heber Valley girl’s camp. The first day, we went canoeing on a small lake and Joe and I shared a canoe. We out paddles all my other siblings we raced against.  Little Peter went with his grandparents on a paddleboat. Lots of fun, except Peter was pretty tired. He cried for a while, and finally went to sleep.

After an okay night’s sleep in the cabin (Pete was up a few times, but did go right back to sleep after nursing), we did some ropes courses. My family was pretty good–nice long arms and athleticism helped us out, although I cannot swing on a rope for whatever reason. Then I climbed a hanging log and went down a zip line. I’ve never been that good at that type of thing, but I did it.

Most all the rest of the weekend was spent eating and talking. Then Monday, Joe and I went to a garden and Ikea. Peter was so tired after all of that. Today we are spending a day at home with good naps so he’ll hopefully be back to his cheery self. Oh–he’s also started to figure out crawling. He can go forward a bit, and isn’t so frustrated.
