Family Reunion 2009

It has been 3 1/2 years since all 7 siblings have been together all at once. Since then we have had 1 wedding, 5 new nieces and nephews, and a mission. We all made it to the lake house in Tennessee for the week of July 4th! I didn't mean for this post to be so long, but I had more than a thousand pictures to choose from, so consider this the condensed version.

Lake house at night. You can see that we were shooting fireworks off the deck.
We caught many fireflies. I don't have a picture of one actually light up, but that's what Grace is holding.
Brooklynn, William, and Jonathan were born 13 days apart.
Janel, Kathy, and Me with the babies
On Friday we went to the Hitchcock's farm (Haley's Family). Haley's Dad turned the old grain silo on the right into a repelling wall, and the silo on the left into a rock wall. David holds the record on the rock wall, making it from the bottom to the top in 29 seconds.
Friday was also David and Haley's birthday.
Me, Aaron, and Kathy
We just love Aaron so much!!
