Bear Lake Reunion: Day 2

This trip to Bear Lake happened at my mother's request. It is how she wanted to celebrate her birthday. (I'm sure she'll appreciate me not disclosing the age. Let's just say it was a big one.)
Because all of us rarely get together, we decided it would be our first official family reunion. In honor of the Andrus family reunions we enjoyed growing up...
(Becca, cousin Staci, cousin Emily, me)
Becca made these cute T-shirts for the kids. We managed to get them all together for a photo shoot.
Becca had the genius idea of putting the number where they fall in order of age on the back: Cole, Brady, Riley, Caleb, Asher, Avery and Brooke

I made the matching bows for the girls.
By looking at this picture you'd think Brady took a ride on the Rearys' four-wheelers. Nope, he just walked around with Caleb's helmet on and got dirty. It took a full day to convince him to go for a ride.
Besides the photo shoot, Day 2 was spent eating good food, playing games and taking naps. We stayed up really late the night before playing Nertz (aka Pounce, Racing Demon, Peanuts or Squeal). That night after dinner at Quick 'N Tasty for burgers and raspberry shakes, we played Charades and countless rounds of Mafia. Sharon had some creative ways of killing us all off.

How fun! What amazes me is that Brooke has a huge smile in EVERY picture! Come to think of it, she has a huge smile every time I see her :)
