Part 3: BBQ

The last day of the reunion, we took the kids to a movie and then all went back to our house for a BBQ.
It was really cool to see almost all of the cousins together playing.
One of the benefits of having the reunion local was that Grandma Pratt was able to come.  We don't see her nearly enough.

We were going to go swimming, but storm clouds rolled in and stopped that.  Luckily the girls were able to escape for a minute of shopping while the boys watched the kids. It is rare that we get even that many of us all together, so it was a great time to catch up.

Part 2: Parma Pizza

After we finished up at the pond, we went to Parma Pizza.(not sure if that is really the name)  The food was great and we enjoyed talking.  Everyone was really tired and worn out if you can't tell.



What a great way to end the day. 
Hudson was such a trooper.

Pratt Family Reunion Part 1

 This year for the Pratt Family Reunion, we had a "staycation" for those of us here, and the rest had to travel to us.  The first night, the adults got together for dinner at Texas Roadhouse and Coldstone.  The next day, some of the boys went golfing and then the family went to Christensen's Pond.  Everyone was there except for Casey and Stacy's family.

Corbin loved the water slide
Hudson enjoyed the water too...
 Corbin had no fear to jump off the diving board into the water.

 Everyone was trying to teach Marlon how to dive, and Jeremy decided to start showing off with back flips.
 The road to get to the pond had a lot of hills and gullies.  Corbin loved it and said it was like a rollercoaster.  Here he is enjoying the ride...
Christensen's pond was great!  It had something for everyone: canoes, zip line, diving board, slides, docks, and a sandy beach.  The very best was watching Burdette try the zip line and drop like a rock.  I wish I had been video taping that or at least had my camera ready.
