We went to the Pearce family reunion in Utah in July. Tom couldn't take work off, so I went with my 5 kids. (I don't really know what I was thinking.) My parents are a lot of help though, I guess that's what convinced me. I'm glad I went, but I've never known such physical and mental exhaustion. It was great to see everybody. My kids had a blast playing in the stream and getting dirty, even finding and capturing bats! Here are some photos of our camping experience.
Kai, lovin' the dirt...
Kalea with her girly cousins. Elizabeth, Audrey, and Libby.
Neil was teaching Jackson how to skip a rock.
Jackson, Neil, and Michael

Happy for the time being, only 'cause of the water nearby and a sucker
Had to post this one for the eyelashes
This is Kalea's embarrassed face. Her boat didn't win and she didn't want to take a picture with it but I made her.
Kai was very proud of his boat. The kids made their own boats from various random materials and then they raced.
Uncle Devin and Jackson. Jackson's boat came in 2nd place.
The river and the boats. 
Jett loved the water. Could NOT stay out of it. I think the delicate ecosytem balance was thrown off by all the rocks added to the stream by mister Jett. Here is his reaction to a big rock thrown in the stream by Papa. "WHOA!"
Big splash!
Papa found a bunch of big rocks and was throwing them in the water to make big splashes. The kids loved it!
Thanks to all the family for the fun times. I wish I took more pictures. Too busy I guess!
