Taylor Family Get-Together

Last weekend we had an unofficial family reunion with the Taylor family.  The last time everyone was together was when Kadee Lynn was born.

We camped out at Lake Mead for 2 nights.  There were lots of laughs and good times.  Kadee Lynn had so much fun with her cousins that she doesn't get to see often.  The weather was perfect.

Chris forgot his tent poles, so the boys jimirigged a tree to hold it up (luckily I brought a whole roll of kite rope).  

The kids making a train of chairs.  "choo choo"

On Friday we all went to the lake and played.



 Kadee Lynn thought she should learn to swim like the other kids.

 All the Taylor grandkids.  I love this photo!

 Camping!  All the kids did a great job camping.  Kadee Lynn woke up around 6 am both mornings, and luckily youtube on the phone kept her in the tent for a bit longer while we slept more.

On Saturday - Scott, Jason, Jen, Chris, Brent, and Scott's dad all did the Pumpkinman Sprint Triathlon.  Oh my gosh the bike was basically up hill the whole way.  And I mean STEEP hills.  Great job everyone.

 Luckily there was a park right by the finish line so tired Kadee Lynn could play and not whine.
 

 After the race we checked into a hotel at Lake Las Vegas.  Scott & I love Lake Las Vegas because its so pretty.

During breakfast we sat and watched all the kids play in the gardens.  It was so dang cute (as you can see in the videos below)!







The whole family!  I love how the single boys have separated themselves from everyone else in this photo - made me laugh.


 It was a great little trip.  Now if we could only get my family together...
