Brown Reunion

We loaded up the Suburban and went to the Brown Reunion in Montana.  We were stuffed to the gills!  needless to say we bought a hitch carrier for our Telford Reunion the next week!

The kids traveled great, it took about 5 hours and they didn’t get out of the car once!  We only stopped once in Arco, that has got to be a record for our family!

We had the best camp site, it had all the facilities you could need.  We were glad to have water and electricity to keep us warm at night.  Grandpa Nielson didn’t come until the second day but Claire Bear warmed right up to Uncle Mark, he was a great stand in until Grandpa got there.

After Grandpa got there Claire and Dallie were in all sorts of traps, tricks, and invisiblism they could create.  They had such a fun time together with their Grandpa teasing them.

It is always good when we get to see Grandma Ruby.  She is so popular around our house.  We talk about her a lot, so it was fun to actually get to see her for a few days.  We also got to go to Aunt Sandra’s beautiful cabin in the woods.  It was really neat!

I have a picture just like this when Claire was a baby when we went to the Big Brown Reunion in Utah.

The kids (minus Rett) with two Grandma’s.  It is so fun to have so many Grandmas!

Grandpa N made a kiddy pool for the littles.  The raging river was just too much for us and this worked perfectly to cool off in.

We went down to take a dip in the river but it was too cold for us!  It was by this huge pretty rock though.

Rett wanted in so bad, but didn’t stay in, it was like ice!

Summer got coerced across, possibly pushed across, I’m not sure how it happened, but it took for EVER to get her to come back, it was super cold water!

And it was quite a little swim in a fast current.

She finally did it with Uncle Jason’s help.

We had a great time, and good visit with family we don’t get to see to much.  Plus all of the sisters (and Mom) were there so it makes it all worth it!
