We had a family reunion last month (July) at my parents house and had a blast! My sister, brother-in-law, neice and nephew came from Colorado, and my brother and sister-in-law came from Washington. We had been planning this for a few years so it was so nice to see everyone! We hadn't seen my brother Matt and his wife Andrea in about 3 years! They also met Preston for the first time. Oh and we also had a french exchange student, Nicholas, join us in our reunion who was here visiting Texas for 3 weeks. It was a good thing Matt went on a 2 year mission to France a few years and was able to translate a few things Nicholas had a hard time communicating to us. But overall, Nicholas spoke pretty good English! We played card games like every night, OR Kinect, (which Jason my brother-in-law brought with him) :o) We went to Space Center Houston, which was our first time going there even though we've lived here for about a year and a half! We saw a cool diving show with some professional divers from All American Dive Team. We went to the beach, which was also our first time going since we've lived here (we are usually pretty lame until guests come into town ;o) We went swimming in my parents backyard, had a Hawaiian Luau and the women put on a hulu dance for the men, got some professional pictures taken of the whole group, went to see Marcus get his Eagle Scout award, and celebrated Preston's first birthday by going to Chuck E. Cheese and having presents and cake at home! Alexa and Amberly played with each other night and day (seriously), Tristan (2 yrs old) had a weird love/fetish with Preston since he was really the first little boy he's seen his size... he would get this crazy look on his face and grab Preston's skin and say in a weird voice "little booooyyy"...it was sooo funny!!!! Preston didn't think it was so funny but oh my goodness, I thought it was hilarious! We had such a good time and it felt like the week went by way too quickly! I hope we can do it again Very soon!! Here are some pictures...
