Hirschi family reunion

 We had a great family reunion with the Hirschi's.  Sadly David was not there.  David did a rotation in Conneticut for a month so we really missed him, but we still had a great time and made great memories.  Here Carter is playing cornhole by himself.  We all played a lot of corn hole all week long.  Milo made his own set and we had a tournament. 
 I was in charge of the fungulator.  We had a great time launching the balloons. 
  This was our one casualty of the flying water balloons.  When they hit you it stings real good, and it hit Sadie right in the chest.  Poor girl and even with a broken arm.
                This is how Carter was most of the time, in the dirt playing with pine needles and rocks.  What a good boy!
 Jason and Milo grilling up some great chicken. We ate really well this week.
 We played "minute to win it" one of the evening and had a great silly time.
 I made a fire in the morning.  I know that if David was there he would have made a fire every morning so I did it in his memory.
 We made rockets and had a rocket launcher and had a great time making them.  We launched them and they went super high.
 Carter loved playing with Allie because she was his size.  He would hug her and just play with her. 
 The kids with all of their rockets waiting to launch them


 I wore them out every day.  This was so sweet to see.
 This is what all of the kids feet looked like all week long.  What a fun time to get messy and play with cousins.  One afternoon Fenton came in and was covered with mud and all the cousins, Uncle Jason and Grandpa were all catching frogs.  They caught about 10 of them and played with them all afternoon and I am pretty sure they killed most  of them.
 We had a skit night and we played a little BYU football play and then sang the BYU fight song.  They loved it.
The girls cousins practiced and did a skit.  they sang "we are never getting back together" and Izzy had such a attitude it was adorable. We had enough extra cabins that the girls had a "girls cabin" and the boys had a "boys cabin" and they loved to just hang out with each other.  I barley saw the kids because they were having such a great time with their cousins.
The reunion was up at Ashton at a girls camp place with 7 A frame cabins.  It was great time to be with the Hirschis, although we really missed David
