Wolf Pack Family Reunion

A couple of weeks ago, Teague and I got to go to his family reunion. We all stayed in these great cabins at Rivers Edge in Heber. He had family coming from all over the country! From California, all the way to Florida. It was so nice to be able to meet everyone. We've been married for almost 3 years now, and after this reunion, I realized I hadn't even met HALF of his family. It was such a fun weekend.
The majority of the weekend was spent chatting, meeting new people, eating, laughing and fishing. Well, attempting to fish anyway... Teague and his brother Steven wanted to go fishing, so Alyx (my wonderful sister-in-law.) and I brought some drinks and lawn chairs, and went with them. We got to the pond, and their was no shade ANYWHERE. It felt like it was over 100 degrees and we were melting. We set up our lawn chairs to watch the boys fish in the blistering heat, and then a few minutes later we were literally attacked by ants! We were COVERED. So needless to say, Alyx and I didn't last long at the pond.
Grandma Wolf and Teague's aunt Laurie had put together all these old home movies, and slide shows of all these old black and white pictures of the family that were so cool to watch. Everyone gathered together and played "guess who" to all the old pictures. So fun!
My assignment for the reunion was to do family pictures of everyone up there. And when I say everyone, I mean over 80 people, and LOTS of individual families. It was quite a feat! Somehow, amidst the chaos, and with help from Teague's fantastic cousin Erin, we managed to make it all work!

Between the all nighters by the bon-fire, and taking over the field nearby to play kick ball, the weekend was a fun filled success! I'm so glad we were able to go.
