"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Fullmer Family Reunion

This is something I look forward to every year and I was really worried I would not be able to go this year. I had a bunch of stitch abscesses in my incision from my c-section and I was hurting so bad and was not feeling very well but I just knew I could not miss the reunion, so we went anyway. Getting in and out of a camping chair was the worst part of the weekend other than that I did really good and Raegan was a really good baby while we were camping so that was good. The kids all had a blast as usual and we came home very dirty but had a good time. We did not get to do very much this summer since I had just had Raegan but I am so glad we at least got to go to the reunion for a couple days.

Jaxon cooking a hot dog for the first time, this was actually really funny to watch.DSC_7770DSC_7773DSC_7780DSC_7783

Terrible picture of me, I had just woke up, but it was the only picture of me all weekend which was probably a good thing since I looked and felt so crappy.

This is what my Dad did with his hat when I told him he could not wear it in the pictures.

I asked Mary if I should take some family pictures since my Dad’s brother Dale was so sick with cancer and was told he would not live much longer, it’s a good thing we did because he passed away a month later. This is my Dad’s whole family, I love these people.
