It was time again for the annual Burt Family Reunion held at Heise Hot Springs! Our family looks forward to this every year! Mom and Dad always make it SO MUCH FUN!!! Unfortunately, we had a conflict - our music retreat was only two weeks away at this time so we were totally SWAMPED! This made it impossible for us to camp overnight, but we were able to go on Friday and have a great time with everyone. We were only there for eight hours or so, but I somehow managed to get a TON of pictures! Those eight hours were jam packed with lots of fun stuff to do. So, I will let the pictures do most of the talking...

Mom always plans a fun craft for the girls. This year it was simple, and way cool. I especially liked this design because it hides my toes. (Anyone who knows me knows that I DO NOT paint or try in any way to make my toenails pretty... Who has time for that anyway???)

Somehow, Richard managed to get James to take a nap right during all the fun. He sat by the crib and sang primary songs until he drifted off. What a good Daddy.

Notice the cookie Marianne is holding. Mom brought up Palm Tree cookies for the kids to frost. She got the cookie cutter in Hawaii on their recent visit.

Jared took it upon himself to make sure the boys got some "math lessons" as he put it. Jared claimed that he wasn't teaching them Poker - just a little game called Blackjack. Aren't Uncles just the best!?

Thomas was eating this up. Now, he is constantly asking everyone to play Blackjack wih him.

Great Granddad telling stories of his childhood around the campfire. Grandma also told some touching stories. We treasure these moments.
