Barnum Family Reunion

This is the last part of our trip out West. Sorry it has taken me so long to blog these, but the pictures have been a bit of pain to download and file.

Anyways, Geoff's side of the family had our First ever reunion. It was soooo fun!! Our sister in law's family has a cabin in Park City so that is where we stayed. All I can say is relaxing, beautiful, perfect weather, fun! It was so fun to get together with everyone and see you all again. We can't wait until the next time. Here is a rundown of what we did. (warning: lot's of pictures)

Family picture in the hammockEverybody playing Bocce BallMost of the family took a little drive to this beautiful lake. Here is Geoff, Macie and Lauren playing in the water. Heather and I stayed behind because of sleeping kids. We headed up to Park City to try and do the zip lines and slides. Here is Macie on the Merry Go Round.Here is the rest of us on the ski lift. As we were getting on the ski lift the worker said "just so you know, it might start raining on you." We were thinking..um..ok. So we get on the lift and about half way up, it starts pouring rain on us. So, we get to the top and wait for a suburban to come and pick us up to take us back down to the bottom because they had closed everything. Lame!Oh well I guess. At least we were able to get a refund for all of the tickets and Macie had a good time on the rides that she did. And in Brocks words "at least we got to ride the ski lift, that was pretty cool."

We played a family game of minute to win it. Here is Grandpa in the action. We all thought that this was either genius or cheating :), either way, he won.Here is just a really cute picture of Macie.We did family pictures while we were there. Here are grandma and grandpa with all of the grandkids before we left.

Here is Geoff and all of his siblings (Jay, Heather, Geoff, Troy)Here are all of the grandkids at the picture spot. This was sooo funny, because by this point Addie and Lauren were totally done. I am pretty sure that we did not get one picture with either of them smiling. At one point, Lauren was picking her nose and Addie was lifting up her shirt finding her belly button. Hilarious!!!! Here is the rest of us trying to get all of the kids to smile. HAHA. I don't know what was funnier watching us or the kids.We also went to this really great pool while there. It was so great because Macie and Addie could do anything they wanted. Here I am jumping off of the high diving board.Here's Geoff diving off the low dive. It looks like he is going to belly flop...but I promise you, he doesn't.Here is Addie swimming. They had a water slide and let anyone go down it who wanted to. You could hold your kids or they could down by themselves with a life jacket on or without and you could just catch them at the bottom. Awesome. Macie was in heaven. Here she is at the top of the water slide.Here she is coming down with GeoffHere she is at the bottom. She ended up going down all by herself and loved it. We couldn't get her away from the slide. Addie also went down with Geoff a few times and actually liked it. It was a ton of fun.

Thanks Barnums for such a fun time!! We really can't wait to do it again! It was the perfect ending to our trip!!
