Fun Day IX

I know I talked about this last year, but the kid explosion that has happened at Fun Day over the last two years is insane. In 2012 Reed was the only kid, fast forward to this year and there were 23 kids invited, almost all of which fall into the two and under category. I decided to call in reinforcements and had some of the kids' Grandparents come help out for the day. Hopefully we didn't scare them off too badly because we already have four more babies expected between now and March, and will definitely be needing help again next year! Even with the extra hands I was super busy juggling my two kids and trying to participate in the games so I took very few pictures myself, most of these great shots are courtesy of Pepe who not only was our photographer but barbecued all day for us again this year.

I need to make a list of pictures to make sure I take next year. This year I failed to get a picture with everyone, a family picture of the four of us, pictures of all of the individual families, or a picture of all of our helpers. Fun Day has become a bit of a reunion for Jon and his college roommates. Mark and Stacey have been living in New York for years and just made the move back to the West Coast. They came for an overnight trip and we got to meet their daughter Ella who just turned one. Marli, Adam, and Cole have been coming to Fun Day for quite a few years now but this year they brought along Caden who was just shy of the one month mark. We were so excited to have them and get to meet their newest addition!
