Here's just a little update as to what we have been up to since our last post. We went to Idaho for a family reunion with my dad's side of the family (Graham Reunion). We had so much fun thanks to Uncle Steve, Uncle Gary and Fam, and Uncle Dave and Aunt Brenda, (thanks to everyone else as well). We were always doing something from Geo cashing, playing at the park, observing water falls, playing games, going to a bouncing gym (like Jumpin' Jacks), going river rafting, staying up 'til all hours talking, and of course lots of eating! Ten days after that reunion, headed to Beaver for our annual Stapley Family Reunion. But a few days before that, Skylar came down with some sort of horrible rash that we think was an allergic reaction to something she either ate or something she put in her mouth. Needless to say after four days of a continual rash always changing, fevers and lots of itching, it finally just went away, just in time for the reunion up at the mountain. Which bytheway, mom and dad, was a hit. We were always doing something here as well. Friday evening upon arrival Jake's uncle let the family view ICE AGE Dawn of the Dinosaurs at the cutest theatre ever in the town of Beaver. So cute and funny btw! Thanks Jake and Chantel for making that happen! The next morning (THE 4TH OF JULY)started the day of events with a little treasure hunt with gps', bottle rocket making then launching (thanks to Aaron and Lisa and Lisa's Dad for the connection with the launcher!), crafts with the kids during the annual shotgun shoot (congratulations to Brandon Roper for winning and representing the Rasmussen Family), lots of eating, visiting, and playing lawn golf! We have definitely been busy with family and more family! Pictures to come!
