This last weekend we had a family reunion in Mesquite. I have to say our family looks forward to this one every year. It is with my mom's side of the family. They are all so fun, that we look forward to seeing everyone. We go up every year and last year we started staying in these really nice timeshares. Well, Joe had the best room last year. I never saw it but heard all of the fuss about it. My Aunt Renee wanted that room! So last year she went to the front desk to reserve it for this year and it was already reserved. My brother Wayne had beat her to it! To my benefit Wayne and Dina were not able to come. So we ended up with their room. We were sad that they weren't there, but man it was a nice room. It was big enough that I could put Jaxon to sleep in the back room and wouldn't wake him up if we were noisy in the front room. We got up there Friday afternoon. Randy went golfing and it was up to me to go shopping for food for the weekend. Lucky for me my dad came with. It was a fun little shopping trip. We took Jaxon and it was fun to have grandpa with us. Jaxon and grandpa kept going around and hiding and scarring me. Jaxon thought that was great! Then we came back and went swimming, which I have to say is really fun now that Brayden's not hanging on my neck and screaming to get out the whole time. Now he is a fish and you can't talk him into getting out of the pool. We then went to dinner at this little Mexican restaurant there. We love there food, the chips a salsa are great. Bowling time came next, Jaxon was exhausted because he hadn't napped all day but he was a trooper for a little while. Saturday was the big day were we all met at a recreation center and eat, play games, and have an auction. This year was really fun. My Uncle Bevin did the Olympics. I had to sit out and watch Jaxon but my crazy husband played and had a blast. To finish off our night we went ice blocking. This is what my kids look forward to the most. They have the best hill for it there in Mesquite. I think we ended up getting 14 or so ice blocks. It was so much fun even Jaxon went down the hill with Uncle Joe running beside him. (Thanks Joe) After he went down Joe was his new best friend. He kept saying Joe Go, Joe Go. On Sunday a lot of us gathered together and had my cousin Cole talk to us about his mission. He just returned home from Bulgaria. He did a great job and it such a great feeling to have our family in a room together with such a strong spirit there. Cole's spirit was so strong and it was a great way to end a wonderful family reunion. I am grateful to have such a wonderful family that is so supportive of each other. Oh,by the way, yes Randy had to take his shirt off to distract the other Potato Sack racers. Never a dull moment!!!
