Here are the boys trying to get some sleep before we get to the reunion. Mckay and Logan are smart boys, because with 96 people staying in one big cabin (luckily its very big) we didn't get a lot of sleep... but we had lots of fun! (Paul says they get the sleeping look with their mouth wide open from their mother... lucky kiddos)
Here are some of the Ritchie girls, they are really close (hee, hee...get it?) Three of Paul's sisters are on the couch, Michelle, M'Recia, and Wendy with Grandma Elda (86 years old... Go Grandma!) and Paul's mom, Carolyn.
Here is Paul with his other sister Adrienne. They were setting up for the outdoor carnival, which turned out to be a highlight for the kids.
Mckay getting all ready for the sponge toss game...
Tanner posing with his group...
Oh, and see Bryson and his cousins trying to look all innocent on the top balcony? This is just before they found their target...
Garrett! He got soaked, big time. But, what a good sport!
Paul braved the not so hot temperatures and took the boys swimming while I enjoyed sitting on the side visiting with cousins. As you can see, Logan is not to fond of swimming yet.
The kids had a great time climbing the rock wall at Altamont.
I am so grateful to have such a great family. Grandma Elda had 2 boys, that married and each had 8 children. Now she has 96 in her family with all the grandchildren. That's pretty impressive. It was so fun to see some of our cousins that we don't see much and visit with them. I am so happy that my boys have such powerful older cousins to look up to as role models.

Looks like the trip was a success..can't imagine 96 people all in one cabin...no matter how big! Your summer looks as busy and crazy fun as mine..enjoy!
Sounds like fun...actually, it sounds terrible. We have the Richards reunion, and this year we had upwards of 110 people in one house. Too much chaos for me!!!
