Gardner Family Reunion...

At the beginning of August we took a trip to Lake Vallecito just outside of Durango. It was beautiful and a much needed vacation! Thanks to Bruce's mom who arranged everything--- each family got to stay in their own little cabin. The kids were excited to be able to play with their cousins and everyone loved just being in the outdoors and not having to go anywhere or do anything.

We each took a day for activities and I think the biggest hit was the "Gardner Family Olympics." We all participated in various "olympic events." Each person/team got 3 points for winning, 2 points for second place, and three points for third place. It was a lot of fun! Bruce and I won the three legged race and lost horribly (thanks to me) on the egg toss. I did alright at the football kick, but was awful at the frisby toss. Needless to say it was a lot of fun and there was something for everyone. I just have to put out there that Bruce's mom dominated the woman's arm wrestling!! I was her first opponent and it was embarassing!

Here's a few picts from our fun trip...

We went down to the lake one day and Savannah headed straight for the water/mud. She had a lot of fun following her cousins around!

We did lots of front porch sittin'... Savannah loved it!
