Fielding Family Reunion

Over the 4th of July my mom's side of the family got together to have loads of fun down in Logan, UT! We had the Fielding Family Reunion! What a blast! It was Nic and I's first time as a married couple, so it was fun to have Nic there with me and for me to get to watch him play with my cousins and enjoy the families reunion traditions.

My Uncle Jason and Aunt Janell did such a FABULOUS job on this years reunion!! J&J decorated with 4th of July stuff all over the cabins and did such a wonderful job!

Here is Grandma with almost all of the grandkids...and great grand kids! We're missing some and I hope and wish we can all make it next year!

Here is one of the traditions we do every year...WATER GAMES! They're fun, Nic and I were taking a nap at this time. We were both so so so tired!

Here is another tradition, the egg toss. (there is my hubby first one on the right! :D) My Uncle Eric and Aunt Shannon usually win this....but not this year!

Great catch honey and smile! :D Love him!

My brother Tom and Uncle Ken are the ones who won the egg toss this year! Congrats! Everyone was so shocked when Eric and Shannon's egg broke on them!

Here is Nic with our new adorable cousin Sloane...is that how you spell it? oh dear. Well, she is so stink'n cute and such a good baby! Nic and I love her a lot, can't you tell by his face?

Here we are...another tradition. (seriously not everything we do is tradition....but there is an afternoon where we spent it doing most of all the tradition stuff) This one is the dummy doll. Don't know why they have the dummy part exactly. Anyways, there is this soft, clothe doll that you can answer yes and no questions too and it nodds it's head. It's never been a favorite because the questions are always "does david have a girlfriend" or "are nic and megan going to have a baby soon." Stuff like that, every year. haha. So anyways...Nic and I went and enjoyed it. It was his first time so we had too!

Oh and here is Nic getting his finger bit by the dummy doll. Kids enjoy this a lot. I can't even recall getting my finger bit. All the young cousins that it was hilarious that Nic was getting his finger bit. He's cool. I know.

Here is Maurinda doing face painting. I was also assigned....but I only did a few. My dragons are horrible by the way. They looks like lizards. Anyways, we always have crafts to do and they are fun fun fun!

This is such a wonderful photo to look at for me. My grandpa passed away a little over a year ago and this is the second reunion that he hasn't been here for. We all got our own balloon, we got to put our favorite memory or message to him and we all got to send them up. It was a wonderful and emotional time. We love him so very much and I cannot wait for the day when I get to see him again. I'm so grateful for the gospel and the fact that I know I will see him again someday!

After the dinner and some other festivities we had a skit/learn something night. We enjoyed the program of "Get a Clue!" Each one of the original 10 kids from my mom's family and my grandma had to dress up. (yes we had to get creative and add or change names considering we had more and to go with the program) My mom was Mrs. White and our weapon was the rope. Mom had to dress up and we had to make up a skit that had to do with organization and time management. We had to have a rope in it and we had to have the frase "get a clue" somewhere in it. All the skits turned out sooooo good! So were funny. Some were spiritual. So were just plain awesome! Here are some pics....and don't forget Detective Gray. haha.

Here is my grandma. She is so hilarious. She was the one who gave out the rewards at the end. She did such a great job. And for her outfit she cut this garbage bag to make a cape and since she is "detective gray" and since the bag is black she put a sign on the front of the cape that said "this is a gray cape" oh man. it was so hilarious. she just says the funniest things. Nic and I love her so much.

Here is Jason and Janell. Oh man. Their skit was on jobs and having a good interview and anything else that goes with that. They did such a good job....they had Jason dress up as different people coming in for different interviews and this one is of him being Micheal Jackson. SO HILARIOUS. They both did such fabulous jobs!

Here's Brenda and Lorin. Their skit was on the 5 love languages. They did such a wonderful job. Sweet, hilarious, entertaining all in one! Good job guys!

Here she is, Mrs. White! haha. My mom came up with such a fabulous skit for us! I thought it was great, even though I'm not a good jump roper. She was able to tie everything in sooo well! Good Job mom!

Then here I am jump'n away! Tom, David, Moe, Nic, Mom and I all had to jump. Richard and dad were the ones turning the rope. It was loads of fun.

And here is one, or probably, my most favorite parts of the whole reunion. The very last night we have a fire and have testimony meeting. It is so nice hearing so many testimonies and feeling the spirit so strong. I am so grateful for the family that the Lord blessed me in! I can't wait till next year!
