REDD REUNION 2010

Well here it is! The fabulous Redd Reunion Blog post. The Reunion began on Sunday with Lucy's blessing and lots of food and fun. Monday we had the famous (or infamous) family olympics. There was lots of fun to be had and everyone participated. It was crazy but really great fun.

In the afternoon the guys went up shooting. They had such an awesome time. This was my little boys favorite part of the whole reunion. Thanx Grandad and the uncles for taking them up there and letting them shoot!
That night we got to do fireworks since 4th of July had been the day before (a Sunday) it was cool but a bit dangerous. When you get that many people together all wanting to light firework at the same time it can be a bit scary but we all came out unscathed and had a good time too.

Talmage (Ivalou's baby), Elaina (Heather's baby), and our little Lucy were the new babies in attendance. We were missing Marcus (Sara's baby). Marcus, Talmage and then Elaina were born in February and than Lucy in April so all close together!
On Tuesday we played Minute to Win It games. It was very competitive and lots of silly games. I think the best was the marshmallow toss and the worst would have to be the cracker and whistle race because the crackers must have been 30 years old and had gone rancid (thus the "ick" look on Allison's face) The whole event was fun though and will hopefully be repeated in future years.

What a fabulous time with such fabulous people. Oh how we adore our family!
