We just got back from my family's reunion - this year it was Travis' turn to host, so we all headed to Boise for some fun. We always take family pictures, but forgot until after my niece's baptism when we were all dressed in church clothes.
Mom and Dad...
Our family...
Travis' family...
Shannon's family...
Tammy's family...
My sister Tana is pregnant with their first child and has been on bed rest so she was not able to come. With technology we were able to use our iPad and Face Time her to participate in some of the activities. The little kids were mesmerized by somebody "on tv" talking to them, hilarious! So we had Ashlyn hold the iPad up so Aunt Tana could be in the sibling picture...
We had fun rafting the river in Boise one day...
And just like when we were kids, I didn't tip it over as I stood up floating down the river...
We hit a GREAT water park on of the days too - we can't wait to go back there again next summer!
And what McDowell family gathering would be complete without a trip for some ice cream, yummy! It kind of ruined the experience when we ran into a guy I dated right before Rick...kind of an awkward moment!! He's the guy in the brown shirt in the back ground. Who would've thought we'd run into each other in Boise, Idaho!
All the cousins had a fun time playing together all week...
...even if Blake thinks he's too big to hang out with them.
Thanks everybody, we had a lot of fun. Glad we're back in the Northwest so we can see each other a lot more often...crazy to think that those of you who didn't make it out to Georgia to visit us, hadn't seen Rick in 7 years!

Devin politely said he wasn't going to go white water rafting with you in the same boat as him:)
Everyone looks amazing! I love the picture of all the siblings together! And your parents look great, you will have to tell them hi for me. Looked like a great time with great people.
