We packed a lot into the extended holiday last weekend. It was busy, but it was also fun to see everyone!
First on our long line of events, was my cousin Michael's 6th birthday. The boys always have fun getting together to play with their 1st, 2nd and 3rd cousins.

We had to leave the birthday party early since we had to get the babysitters picked up. I had my 15 year class reunion on Saturday night. I really wasn't sure I wanted to go, but living this close I figured I should. I ended up having a really good time. It was great to see people that I haven't for many years. It was a little disappointing in that only a little over half of our classmates were able to make it. It's hard to believe it's been 15 years!
On Sunday, we went to the Noble family reunion in Albion for dinner. It was also my Grandpa's birthday, so that made it extra special. They had a nice turn out, and all of my family was able to make it this year. That afternoon/evening we went to Kevin's parent's house. A lot of Sue's family was back home, so she had everyone out for supper.
Grandpa and Grandma got a new toy for the kids...a motorized pickup. The kids all loved taking it for a spin. The little kids are to little to drive yet, but they had fun riding. Surprisingly they all got along pretty well taking turns.
The boys have been over to their house driving the pickup almost everyday since then.
On Monday, we went to Kevin's aunt and uncle's house to spend more time with the family. It turned out to be a really nice day. They had water balloon fights and ran through the sprinkler.
Kevin and Mike even got in on the fun throwing water balloons.
The kids also played a game with water balloons that was like 'hot potato'. When the timer went off the water balloon popped on you.
