Richardson Family Reunion

This weekend was our annual Anthon & Barbara Richardson Family Reunion. Heather and I were talking this weekend trying to figure out how many years this has been going on. We actually have no idea and couldn't figure it out because it started before we were even born! Here are a few pictures. So much goes on that it's hard to get pictures of everything but here's a few extremely random and very poorly described tid-bits.
Ashton and Brigham


Grandma and Grandpa before Church



It's hard to explain, but this is our family's train. Yes, a train. It makes smoke, has a whistle and everything. Basically the only thing that doesn't make it a train is the fact that it has wheels and doesn't need tracks. It can seriously go 65+ mph! You sort of have to see it to believe it. Two years ago we entered it into the Snowflake 24th of July parade and won the Spirit of Family award. We loaded that thing up with almost 100 family members! No one could believe what they saw. Each year since the parade committee has called Grandpa and asked him if he would re-enter. It's SO much work so maybe we'll do it again another year.

Kimber loves shoes! You can barely tell but she is wearing Heather's in this picture. Excuse Addie's head, by the way.

Even Page got into the spirit of camping! Saturday was pretty cold so Heather and Doug put a jacket on her. In this picture Kimber wanted to look out the window and decided to get a little help from Page. She didn't seem to mind at all.

Kennedy with a mouth full of candy showing off her "I am a Child of God" necklace, which she refuses to take off. It could be worse, right?

Soren taking a spin on Addie's Barbie trike.

Soren, again

Kennedy
Bethany and Heather

My girls were both asleep as soon as we pulled out of the gate- it was such a fun, but very exhausting weekend.
