.family reunion.


Last weekend we attended the Olsen Family Reunion! We left after work Thursday and stayed till Sunday morning. It was great Josh was able to take work off Friday so we could attend all the festivities.


I didn't feel too fancy with the cooking so I threw in some hotdogs for dinner one night.



Here's Gage with his Great-Grandma Mildred.


Saturday they held the annual horseshoe tournament. Gage took this picture of Dad tossing a shoe.


Another picture by Gage


They had lots of activities for the kids. They liked the boondoggle best!


I learned how to crochet my first baby hat while there. It took me 3 whole days! I need to get a picture of Brynn wearing it and show it to my teacher Aunt Faye.




TJ with Grandma Mildred. I tried to get Brynn to come take a picture but she would just cry.



Brynn finally warmed up after almost 3 days. Those Olsen's love babies and she made a few friends by the weeks end. She was a stinker, but they never gave up!



Speaking of stinker...we were SO filthy by the time it was to go home!!! I can't remember the last time any of us needed a shower so bad.


More horseshoe activities.



And here are a few shots from when Gage and I played a game of Frisbee!


(this one is my fav.)

Family reunions are always fun. Gage catching the frisbee on his tippy toes is my favorite pic too!

I would say you took some fantastic pictures at the Olsen Reunion. My fav is also Gage on tippy toes catching the frisbee. Did you use your SLR on that one?
