Reunion Weekend

On our 5-year anniversary, we packed up our family of 5 and drove to Ohio. After well over a year of planning, we successfully executed a reunion weekend with a number of my college friends. We chose Ohio because it is in the middle. Half of us live in the midwest and the other half are on the east coast.

We stayed at a water park resort with plenty for the kids to keep busy. And boy were there kids! There were 17 of them amongst our group. Claire had a great time playing in the water park and swimming in the outdoor pool.

She instantly bonded with another little girl her age, Nora. They each said numerous times that they were best friends. Claire asked me each morning "Moma, who'd I swim with yesterday?" I would tell her Nora and her face would light up. So cute.

Spen was a trooper hanging out with all the little ones. He was a big help on the trip.

Kyle enjoyed some water time as well. The weather was pretty perfect.

A shot of our clan (minus Lucian who mysteriously disappeared during photos). It was so great to see everyone and meet all the new babies.

17 kids and counting.... one of my friends will welcome a new babe in Oct.

Claire and Kyle were both great travelers. I was pretty surprised. Here's a shot of the kids playing in the pack n' play right before nap time. Claire loves to snuggle with her little bro.
