Mathews Family Reunion

There are still just 29 of us at the Mathews family reunion. This year we were missing Becca :( and the void was definitely felt. The weather was perfect. Sun the whole time, and it wasn't too hot. I say this because it is a rarity for Michigan to have such great weather 4 days straight - at least in my experience. Here is a pic of the kids packed into the Honda - boy do we need a mini van!
We did lots of playing on the beach and hanging out in the lodge. This year was our first ever Olympic games - thanks in large part to Diana and Toni. It was so great to have everyone together laughing and playing. We did several relay races. Some involved eggs, others water. Our favorite was when the teams would spin around on a golf club 10 times and then try to run to a chair. Phil even tried it with Ariel. The poor thing doesn't have great balance to begin with. It was the funniest thing I had ever seen watching her try to walk. I hope that it is something that we can do next year.

Nick was helping Norman and Doris set up the new laptop they bought. What a nice guy :)My patriotic children - aren't they adorable?
