Family Fiesta 2009

In honor of my in-laws getting home from their mission in Spain the grandkids voted to name our family reunion

Family Fiesta 2009

We all headed to Denver at the end of June.

We hiked.......
Picnic-ed...

Jax and Jana
Grant

Ate Lady Bugs.....
(OH wait, that was only Mckenna)
You can't see the hundreds of lady bugs that were crawling around, but after lunch Mckenna was sitting on the ground trying to pick up all of the lady bugs. I thought "Lady bugs are harmless...She will be fine!" and continued chatting with my nieces and nephews. Next thing I knew Mckenna had picked up several lady bugs, watched them crawl on her hand and decided it would be a GREAT idea to EAT it... YUM! It crawled on her tongue and then I pulled it out. Poor bug! YUCK!

Mckenna ate her first sucker....
