This last weekend My mom's family had the big Madsen Family Reunion. It was at Cherry Hill this year. Unfortunately, Todd couldn't go, so I loaded up our tent and the boys and headed out. Of course it would have been lots more fun if Todd would have been there, but we still managed!! :) I didn't get many pictures because trying to manage three little boys in water and take pictures at the same time doesn't work that well. I did get a few though that shows the good time we had!
Pace, Briggs, Ty, Jaygen
Aunt Mel and Pace going down the Canyon Ride-Pace LOVED the water slides!
It was a blast going down all the slides and just floating in the Lazy River. We had a fun day. The boys were totally bummed when we had to go back to camp for dinner! I think I did pretty good alone with all three boys too...I only lost Jaygen twice! :)
I had to take this picture of Jaygen. He was playing around in Treyson's swim floaty and it looked like he wasn't wearing anything but the car...ha ha!!
Well, I guess the real reason for good ole' reunions is to catch up with all the fam!! I think my mom said that our Madsen family is now up to 79 people. Everyone made it to this reunion except just a few. Too bad that my grandpa Madsen isn't up to traveling so he could have been there, but it is neat to think that it is him and my grandma that started this family. My cousins Greg and Jeff interviewed my grandpa and made a video of it to show us at the reunion. The last question they asked my grandpa was if he could be there with us what would he like to tell us; what is the most important thing. My grandpa's answers didn't surprise me at all. One thing he said is FAMILY! Family is the most important and to stick together and love each other. My grandpa is such a great example of this. His whole life he has put his family first and we have all been blessed because of it!!!
