Nadauld Family Reunion

We started the reunion off with a blast and everyone headed to Aspen Lakes (in Heber) for the afternoon.

 

There was plenty to do to keep this active family busy FOR SURE!  

A ropes course....

 The course involved a log climb, a rope swing, a log run and a
rope hang (that only Taylor completed.. he's so strong :))

 The kids got to zip line into the lake as many times as they wanted.  Even Grammie tried the zipline... she was AWESOME!  It was like a 12 foot drop or so into the water. We were all super impressed!

 Canoes and volleyball and just playing on the beach made the day a great kick off for the reunion.

Cute Kate and Estelle the oldest grand daughters and best little buddies!

 

 Grammie and Grandpa rented a water bounce-house for 2 days and that was complete entertainment for all!  My desire for a pool got strengthened watching these kids play non-stop in the water.

 

 Train rides were a daily, hourly event and thank you Grandpa for appeasing all the kids!!

 Stacy planned some fun crafts that kept the kids busy for an entire afternoon.

 Above is Nate with his power ball.....

 we were so much fun that the neighbor brought his son and joined in the fun.  Luckily for us, he also brought a cotton candy maker and the kids were in HEAVEN!

The next generation of TEENAGERS.  Aren't they cute! :)

The best thing about a Nadauld get together is that everyone LOVES being around each other and hanging out.  It is always a barrel of laughs when these boys get together.

Above is cute Nick playing with the cousins.  Nick Murphy and Jackson are so much older than the whole slew of cousins.  And they have always been great to come hang out and play with the kids.  My boys look up to their older cousins in all ways. 

Luke and Kate have the same birthday, so we celebrated in style -- Pirate Style.

Luke got a sweet new bike.  Now that he and jake have wheels, we need to sign them up for some triatholons.  We need to put those bikes to use!

Stacy had a great idea for a treasure hunt, so we made it the family scavenger/challenge hunt...  each team had clues and we drove around Heber trying to find the big reward.  It was a perfect birthday family game!  The grown ups were all good sports and participated in all the challenges.

Below is my cute tie dy family!  Don't we look so pirateeee...?

There ain't no party like a Nadauld Party... Stacy got everyone glow sticks and Justin had the sound system going and it was a blast.  I'm sure your reunions aren't this fun.  How could they be??

We also spent a day at the beach at Deer Creek.  The weather held out and we got some sun and some boating time.  The kids just had fun throwing rocks into the lake.

 

And we finished off the week with some yummy J Dawgs and an out door movie.  "Chasing Maveriks" and it was a great family film.  We all grabbed blankets and pillows and stayed up late.

Can't forget popcorn or candy at the movies.  The kids were in HEAVEN!

What a fun reunion.  Leave it up to Steve and Stacy to start the annual reunions out right.  It was super fun and the week flew by.
