Thomson Reunion Friday
The cabin. It is nice to have a place to get inside out of the sun. I'm amazed that it stays as cool as it does during the hot, hot days. It will no doubt be even better when it gets fully insulated. I love that we can cook out of the sun, and the kids can play on a nice wood floor and not the dirt. It is also nice to have such a large gathering place for us to all eat and spend time together.
This year we decided instead of staying in the cabin like we've done the last several years, we'd use our tent again. We got it out and set it up beforehand and decided there was no way we were all going to fit, even without our stuff. After searching online we found this tent at Target. It wasn't too expensive and the review looked good. I was really excited to find a tent with a screen. It was wonderful. We had plenty of room inside, and the screen worked great for shade without being with the bugs. We could take our shoes on and off sitting on the chair before going inside the tent. The coolers were in the shade, and the kids could play there without actually being inside the tent. It was great, and we only had to call three target and drive to three targets before finding one in stock.
Say cheese Morgan, Kayla, and Allie.
Jessica and BJ took the kids for a ride around the pond/swamp. Morgan, Kayla, Connor, Jordyn, and Spencer all had fun! I guess just a week before the water wasn't overgrown with grass. Next year the reunion will be a few weeks earlier which should make the water better, and the temperatures not so hot.
Nate hoisted Allie onto his shoulders and the first thing she did was grab his hat.
Allie and Mark had fun watching the men playing a game.
