Dueck Family Reunion 2012

Okay, so starting out this post for the second time. Somehow what I already wrote got erased ... just a tad frustrating since there are certainly more than a dozen postings I need to catch up on. Yeah, yeah, the story of my life. Cry me a river, right?!

Anyway, don't know that I feel like repeating myself again, and not sure my permanent pregnancy brain would allow me to remember, so here's the rundown.

We love to camp!

We love to camp in this awesomely large tent ... So long as we can find a place for it.



As of this year, we love to take a u-haul trailer along to store our stuff in--especially when there are bears around!!  (yes, we saw a black bear...see farther down!). Super fantastic!



We love to camp along the river when possible (although prefer the weather not to be freezing cold and windy, as it was for our first day this year).



More love for the river ...



And more ...



We love to explore old stumps, rocks, and logs at water's edge.



We love to have mega firewood for endless blazing fires ... to keep warm, but mostly to cook s'mores! Yum!!

Oh, and we like to toss our firewood football style.



We LOVE "Grandma's Store"!



We love skipping/throwing rocks in the river.



We love lots of GIRL cousins!



We love hay rides, where we sing corny songs and chat with the sweet old man (missionary) leading the horses.



We love being with grandparents on said hayrides.



We love the ginormous slip'n slide.



And especially love when we're pretty much the only ones slip'n sliding.



We love sunny days!



And babies with water guns.



We love fishing (had to be said!!)--James' first catch on a fly-rod!



Pretty sure I'm earning brownie points for this one.



Right, Hon?  (Kevin sneaking in here..... YESIREE!!!)



Even love it in the dark.



We love when Aunt Heidi joins us for a relaxing canoe ride.



We love little boys who can't get enough of their grandpas!



We do not exactly love sharing our campground with mischievous black bears ... but spotting them from the car is pretty cool (directly in the middle behind the branches-promise it's there).



We love silly grandmas who show us awesome dance moves.



This move may just be the Freddy, but don't quote me on it.



We love good 'ole target practice.



And staying cool by the water while camp gets loaded up.



We love our favorite burger and shake stop ...



Even when we are tired and dirty.



Mostly we love being with family! Which is why family reunions are the best!!

And to finish off April, we have ...  Earth-Day excitement! Porter's promposal to this sweet girl!! Which involved singing to her (with his bro. and buddies) in front of about 75 surprised onlookers. Happy Birthday to G-ma Loo:-) And sunny family day at the park ... Looks like the man bun is still going strong!;)

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010
