It was my year to plan the family reunion this year, so I made everyone come out to my house. We ate yummy dutch oven dinner and dessert on Friday and played some games. Then we took the whole family to our favorite lake to play on Saturday.
At the lake we enjoyed playing and relaxing on the beach.

And it's always a good time to try our sport behind the boat.
Some skied, some kneeboarded, but most surfed (or at least tried to surf).


A storm came in mid afternoon. A few went home for the day, but most of us decided to wait out the storm. Some found cover on the boat, while the rest of us tried to stay dry under the pavilion. It wasn't as easy as it may sound. The pavilion isn't leak proof, so we huddled under a tablecloth to stay dry. It made for a good adventure. And the best part was after the storm blew over we pretty much had the beach and lake to ourselves. There was only one other group that was still there.

Everyone had fun, we ate plenty of yummy food, and my house remained standing. All in all we had a great reunion! The only thing that would have made it better is if everyone would have been there.
