Family Reunion

We just had our first ever, VOSS Family Reunion! (My mom's side of the family) It was awesome, tiring, fun-filled, fun, exciting, and exhausting!

We were able to see some cousins that I haven't seen in many, many years (Gretchen, Rob, Jeff, Craig). We were also able to see cousins I see about once a year (Kim, Kelly, Ryan, Phil) and the cousins that live near us (David, Dan, Mike, Katie). All of the aunts and uncles were here and putting on a great time.We were only missing 2 cousins (Nicky & Brian). Hopefully they can make the next one.

We went tubing down the Wolf River, bowling, fish fry with Vic Ferrari, dinner cruise on the Fin n' Feather showboat, pig roast with singing entertainment, swimming, blow-ups, minnow races (Noah won 1st place), scavenger hunt (Cassie caught a real frog), water skiing (YEAH Jordan!), jet skiing, & just hanging out at the lake.

It was really nice seeing everyone and their families. The cousins' kids went from 17 to 2 years old. We had activities for everyone, so it was pretty fun. I loved seeing the different personalities of the kids and how they all can manipulate their parents (my children included) :)

Yesterday was unbelievably HOT! The heat index was around 100 and the humidity just sucked the life right out of me. My headache was unbearable around 4pm, so Brad took Cassie and Jordan into town to Walmart and Kohl's. Noah and I relaxed until they got home.

I'm getting pretty excited for the new school year. I've been thinking of lesson plans and working on class supply lists. I need to send out my EC handbook this week, so I better get moving.

Another busy week. Only 3 more weeks until school starts. UGH! Where did this summer go?!?!?
