College Friend Reunion

I'm a week behind on my posts. Anyway, last Wednesday I ventured out of the house by myself with the two kids. Some of my roommates/friends from USU were having a reunion at Porcupine Dam and Cinnamon Creek campground. Because I had just giving birth, I decided camping for 3 days was not for me. I met them at the resevoir for a couple of hours and ate dinner.

Cadence wore her cute flowered swimsuit.

She still is afraid of the water. I put her in a raft and she was ok for a couple of minutes, but then got scared.
She really liked the canoe when it was out of the water - but not when it was in the water.
She talked about the "boat" for a couple of days.
She wanted to "swim" which consisted of me holding her over the water while she put her feet and toes in. She didn't want her feet to touch the beach because it was "dirty."
Gratefully, my friends wanted to hold Cooper so I could spend time with Cadence.
Some of the Grayson Apt gang!!! Rachel, Dave and Anna. Kim and baby. Erin and daughter, Rachel. Shanna. Paul, wife and Aspen. Amy. Me, Cooper and Cadence.

Some of the adults gave the kids a ride in handcarts around the campsite. She thought that was extremely cool and fun.


It was great to see those who were able to make it. I wish more people could have made it and that I could have stayed longer!!!

How fun and what a good idea to do for a friend reunion! That's hilarious that Cadence just wants you to hold her above the water so she can dip her feet in!
