Family Reunion

Over Father's Day weekend we had a family reunion at Raette's cabin in Heber, Utah. I really wanted to go to spend time with my family, but was a little nervous about going with a 2 week old baby. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be! Carson had SO MUCH FUN and wanted to be outside the entire time. He would grab everyone's hand and say "Run, Run, Run!" and want them to run with him and go throw rocks in the creek. It was pretty cute to watch. He also got to spend some time with my dad, "Papa", who he loves. They went for lots of walks and he always wanted to be where Papa was.

I got to spend some time with my Grandma who I miss so much! She is such a funny lady and I love her to death. We got to talk to her about her childhood and about my grandpa and we recorded everything so that Ashley can make a book. I hope that I grow up to be just like her. A woman of faith and with a family to be proud of.

Raette and Dave had jeeps, 4-wheelers, and the Rhino for us to ride while we were there. Jason and I took Carson on the 4-wheeler and he fell in love. He liked to go really fast! Raette had one of Grandpa's old tractors that she took all of the kids for a ride on and Carson got to help her drive. He thought it was pretty cool.
Throughout the weekend we had a ladder-ball tournament and Jason and I were the champions! We got a gold belt from the dollar store as our prize and Jason wore it around for the rest of the day. It was hideous looking.

On Friday night, Carson was running toward me and fell in the gravel face first. The poor little boy really hurt his nose. When Jason and I got to him he was covered in blood from his nose, had gravel in his face and in his mouth, and already had bruises on his forehead. You can see all the blood on his shirt, which pretty much matched the blood on Jason and I. He looked pretty beat up! That didn't stop him, though! As soon as we got him cleaned up he was ready to go play some more. 

On the last night we were there, Zach was leaning up agains the pole outside the cabin and all of a sudden Carson walked up and put his foot up just like Uncle Zach. It was pretty cute. :)
