Family Reunion

Right before I had Asher, I decided I needed one last trip to relax and have fun before he came.  I took the kids decided to go to my parent's house so they could see their cousins and it is pretty much the perfect place to relax.  It turned out to be great timing because my grandparents were celebrating their 65th wedding anniversary and so all of my siblings came up as well! So we had all the Smith kids there and all but 2 of the grandkids. It turned out to be so much fun!  I was there for about a week before everyone came.  When everyone came, we spent the first day at my parents house, enjoying the perfect weather outside.  We spent the day munching strawberries, looking fir bugs and playing in the sprinklers. So much fun!

The next day we all drove to Sunnyside for the party. It was nice to be able to see my grandparents again and enjoy their beautiful yard.  65 is definitely a long time and they are great examples to all of us.  It was weird to see all the kids playing in the yard and house just like we used to do as kids. I still feel like we are not old enough for that.

                  I love watching these 3 boys play together. They are all such good guys!

 My grandparents had 3-4 of these bird houses hanging from their tree and there were babies in all of them! The kids liked seeing the baby birds inside.

 After that, we moved the party to Jeff's house.  Most of the adults went out to Miners for some milkshakes and chili fries, So yummy! I love sitting around and chatting with my brothers and sister, they are seriously funny people.  The next day we went to a park in Yakima and did some smith family races and took some pictures. People started leaving after that and then I finally had to come back home and think about having a baby.  It was such a great trip though and makes me wish I lived closer to my family!
