TIME reunion 2014

Well, this reunion was kindof bittersweet, as it was the last shabang before mom and dad live in Israel for a year. And man....did we have a blast! Most of the week was filled with our favorite thing...swimming!! We swam probably everyday, 2 or 3 times a day. Including night swims :) This year it was also nice because we didn't really have a 'itinerary' like we always do. It was just chill and we just relaxed and did whatever. Some of the things we did were: SWAM! a lot haha. We also went to a childrens museum that all the kids LOVED! We went to a splash park, rode the carousel, and ate lots of delicious food. Here's some pics:

                                     Oh Beau. his pants were falling off.

                                                    my cute kate girl

                                                       oh dear.

                                Griffin was so into cooking at the childrens museum :)

Such a cutiepie.

Those were some of the first festivities we did. We also had a girls breakfast and went to BEAR PAW!! It was so delicious. The guys got to go out like 3 times haha. twice to breakfast, and once out to dinner for Tanners bachelor party. They took him to B Dubs. lucky. Tanner and I had a lot of fun with the nieces and nephews. Lon and Carrie's house has a ton of secret places that they would show us over and over. They also are obsessed with our zombie game on our ipad.

love them.

                                                       the 2 scronnies

                                                 lots and lots of swimmin. I didn't get any pictures of this but Tanner and alicia were in charge of some night swim games....so they planned QUIDITCH! And it was hilarious. All of us were in the pool, and they brought 10 real goldfish acting as the snitch. Oh man it was sooooo funny.

Grandpa and saige :)

So we originally had planned to do a time reunion themed olympics. That was before tan and alecia got engaged. So plans changed, but we were still in this 'in it to win it' contest to see how we all changed our lifestyle's healthier and for the better. Mom and Dad told us that the prizes would be substantial. haha. So for 10 months we all changed things in our lives that maybe we didn't like, and worked really hard to become healthier. We had a meeting and all gave presentations on ourselves and what it is we've been doing and changing for the past 10 months, and then at the end we'd all vote for a top 3. Ashley did amazing....her complete body shape has changed, and she really worked hard on improving every area of her life. There was no doubt that she won. My dad said that every single person voted for her....so she won...

A TRIP TO ISRAEL! to visit my parents. She bawled, and it was sweet! My parents also gave all of us vitamixes! I can't wait to use it. This was part of my moms presentation:

She was showing us her exercises she's done for the past year for her heels. it was so funny ahaha.

Tanner and I were in charge of a fmaily dance party. I didn't get any pictures but it was a hit!!

IT WAS SO HOT!!!

                                          Courtney just adored little saige.

                                   They were all lovin our zombie game. hah.

Jay was loving Beau :)

 We went to pizza factory, all 5 of us couples. That was a blast, and the breadsticks were huge and delicious!

Taking some family pictures. Uncle Rick took a ton of family pictures- this is the only one I got on my phone. There will be more to come later!

So I did something really stupid haha. I was doing a headstand before my presentation just for fun...and I threw out my neck. It hurt like crazy! I hardly slept that night, and the next morning I went to the chiropractor and he said that 2 of my vertabrae's were out. So....he popped them back in and it hurt like the dickens. I was out for the rest of the trip :( not to self- don't do headstands....

Saturday was the big day....

TANNER AND ALICIA'S WEDDING!!! The luncheon was in the morning before the wedding- and it was so beautiful! I'm so sad I didn't get hardly any pictures, but I did get them coming out of the temple....

They are such a cute couple- we are so glad Alicia is part of our family!

Their photographer caught this pic and I really like it.

The wedding was gorgeous, reception was gorgeous, and the DANCE was so much fun! I seriously am so excited that alicia is part of our family. She's a gem! 

Overall, our reunion was such a blast. I'm glad we were all able to get together and laugh our guts out. A big thanks to Lon and Carrie for letting us crash in their house for a week! And a big shout out to mom and dad for making this all happen! I love my family.

Ashley and Ethan came up the week after and my mom ash and i dipped pretzels for tanners open house!
