Whitney Reunion

We made it back from the Whitney Family reunion a little bit ago. Dustin, Allie and Estefan are past out on the couch, tired from playing all weekend. So me and Mark thought we'd post a few pictures.
Aunt Donna had lots of fun games for the kids to play. One game was a "Fish Pond" for the kids to fish for toys. Allie got a ring! We also played Grandkid Bingo. The Bingo cards had pictures of all the great-grandkids. They all liked to see their own pictures and it was fun to get to know eachother better. Then they played bells and sang songs. The Whitney's are very musical!

Estefan, Caleb and Will were too cool for the games so they played down in the creek near our campsite. When I went to check on them this is what I found! The little engineers had buit a wall. It was so cool. They stacked tons of rocks on top of each other to make what I called "The Great Wall of Cedar Mt." Their plan was to dam off the water to make a swimming pool below a little waterfall. They got it damed up enough but the water was really cold, so they just looked at their pool! The boys were in the creek all weekend. Estefan loves to get wet and play with Will and Caleb so he was in 7th Heaven!

I tried to get a long picture of the wall because it went up both sides of the creek bank. This picture doesn't do it justice but Estefan looks so cute!


And this is what Mark did all weekend. Aunt Judy loved holding him and as you can see he loved to be held. He was a good boy and loved being outside. It got pretty cold at night in the tent but he was a trooper. I had him wrapped up in three blankets and put him in his car seat to sleep. It worked pretty well but the next night we slept in the trailer with Jack and Gaye.


This is a picture of my twins! What you didn't know I had twins?! Just kidding - its Tacen and Mark. Tracen's mom is Dustin's cousin, SherriDawn.
Everyone kept mistaking the boys for eachother, even SherriDawn's dad was confused. So everyone started calling them "The Twins." They both have dark hair and steel blue eyes and they're both adorable. I guess they're Whitney babies!

It was so nice to get out of the heat for a few days and fun to see all the Whitney relatives. Thanks to all the Aunts and Uncles and Jack and Gaye for making food and planning such a fun trip. We can't wait til next year!
