Whitmer Reunion

The Whitmer Reunion was the first weekend in June. This year we went to Moose Lodge in Oxford, Idaho. It was fun to try a new location and to have almost everyone there this year. There was a big cabin there that had about eight bedrooms and three bathrooms. We were lucky enough to be able to get one of the rooms. Having a room made it really nice with Lydia so that we could still have her take naps and go to bed at her normal time. Lydia liked playing on the bed. She did really good sleeping. One morning she woke up at five and we put her in the bed between us and she actually fell back to sleep. When she woke up again she looked over and saw Justin right next to her and got super excited.We did the traditional activities at the reunion. Justin played a game of paintball.Lydia wanted to play too.Justin and Lydia were able to go four wheeling.Lydia loved the four wheelers. Anytime one drove past her she would stop what she was doing and wave. Justin's uncle had a little one and Lydia loved driving it by herself.Lydia was so busy and kept going from one thing to another, so in order to keep her contained we would take her on walks.The view was extremely pretty.Justin's sister, Stephanie, took her dog Bobbi to the reunion and Lydia loved having her there. She loves all animals.Justin was also able to get in a game of horse shoes.Lydia loved having other kids around to play with. Most of Justin's cousins have kids that range in age from 6 months to 8 years so it was fun to have them all running around.Justin, Lydia, and I went on a little hike. Lydia liked being in the backpack. I think that she liked being able to reach Justin's head.It was a fun reunion. I think Lydia was completely exhausted by the time we left.
