Halvorsen Family Reunion














Well, here we are back from a fun weekend of family. We spent the weekend outside of Yellowstone with most of the Gail and Alta Halvorsen clan and missed those that were not able to make it. It was a lot of fun having cousins around to play. Aspen, Emma, and Dylan had a blast spending none-stop time with Kate and Luke and it was great for them to get to know their cousins better. Boyd and I really had a great time with Grant and Susie as well since they were the only siblings along, it allowed us to get to know these two amazing people more and who couldn't fall in love with precocious little Kate and her adventures.

Dylan made up a song after the first night when a dog decided to join us in our cabin. (Grandpa Great stayed with us as well so the girls loved that as well.) The song went had the melody of "Twinkle, Twinkle..." and went, "Aspen, Emma, and Me. Mommy, Daddy, and Grandpa Great. Grandma, Grandpa and the dog." It was so funny to hear her little two-year old voice singing this song and she was so proud.

We got to go River Rafting, minus the White Water and rapids. We spent much time in the water dragging the raft over the gravel underfoot. It was a humerous picture. Who'd have thunk that when the disclaimer said that you would not get your money back due to lack of fun it would me that the water was only an inch high in many areas. We did have fun though and lots of laughs.
