The M&M reunion at Estes Park

Where do I begin?! For 3 days I have sat at this computer ready to blog our last week and there is just too much! I have tons of pictures and tons of video that I could put on. Then I have tons more of my sisters pictures I could add, and then cousins' pictures, etc. etc.

I have drafts of the entire reunion that are almost ready to post, but for now I will start by showing off my family because right now I miss them all so much!! I really should never blog with country music playing in the background. Everything gets way too sentimental.

Here are my Mom and Dad! And of course you all know Dale. Dale is the baby of the family. He'll be a senior in high school. Mom and Dad are almost empty nesters, but their house will never be empty. Hopefully they are still up for watching my kids next week! The next 4 family pictures (and ours at the very top) belong to DJ. She is the best photographer ever, and someday we'll be able to afford to pay her what she is really worth. Thanks DJ for all of the amazing pictures!

We'll continue with youngest to oldest so that brings up my sister Abby and her hubby Cody. They are due with their first baby in January, so needless to say this poor girl wasn't feeling the greatest this week. She was such a good sport though!

Jackson and his family are next. I miss these guys sooooo much!! Morgan you are the best! I think I might have a video of you rocking out on the guitar. Dylan turned 6 while at the reunion, and cute Chloe is 2. Rock on!! (The "rock on" picture will be posted later)

DJ is my sister that is 2 years younger than me, and we definitely don't hang out enough. Our girls had so much fun with DJ and David's girls. Brooklynne is 7, Briannyn 5, Joey is almost 3 and Jamilynn is 1. (the views behind you are great, but I need more of a close up of you guys--like maybe a yoga pose ;) )

And then there is Brian who was born 2 days before my first birthday. Brennen and Courtlynn look about the same size, but he is almost 8 and she is 5. My girls are really missing these kids too! I really need to get back to Wyoming more often. I miss my whole family so much.

I have time to add some videos really quick before I go make dinner.

Here are Brian and Jackson doing what they do best! Brian didn't really throw the drum. It kept tipping over on him. Bumpy grassy areas aren't really the best for drum sets. Sorry about my camera work on this one. I had to stop watching through the lense for a minute. I have more jamming videos that I'll add later.

And my girls doing what they do best! My pictures from this talent show night were really dark. I was kinda bummed because it was such a fun night! I know others got video of everyone's talents. I can't wait to see it and have a copy of it!

Baby is screaming and dinner needs to be made. There is so much more to come!!
