Family Reunion

This weekend we went up Logan canyon to our annual Israelsen family reunion at the cabin. It's always so fun to go and visit with cousins, some I hadn't seen for more than 6 years!


And I guess since I still can't organize my pics in the right order, we'll start off with a pic of our front living room that is finally all done. A little bit of a tight squeeze with our monster big couches, but we made it work.

And on to reunion fun. Here's Brooklyn eating some of Makayla's candy...

And making noises...
...and being cute.

Showing dad her candy loot from the candy grab.
The candy grab...insanity.
This was one of two tables completely full of candy!!

And the candy cannon, always a favorite. Who doesn't like watching candy shoot out of a big cannon and hearing the big loud BOOM!
I don't know if we somehow missed the other events like the fishpond and the craft/games or if they just didn't happen this year. Kind of a bummer. But we still had an awesome time!
I wish I had taken pictures of the Logan River...it's higher than I have ever seen it in my 18 years living here. In the back yard of Glen's cabin the water comes within a few feet of the cabin. And it's a pretty big yard. The river is literally flowing through it. It's crazy!! And along the road up the canyon the river is within inches of coming onto the roadway. I really should have taken pics. Maybe this next weekend. We are tentatively planning a Bear Lake trip. So we'll see if it's still as high then.
