So You FINALLY Get to Here about our trip to Donner Lake! How excited are you?!! HAHA I know not really at all...hahah!Aaron's family was celebrating his Grandfathers 80-Something birthday and decided to make a full family reunion out of it! We had such a blast! Our immediate family (Aaron's parents, siblings and significant others) all went in on a cabin so we could make the most of the weekend. We stayed 3 blocks from the lake and were able to walk back and forth super easily! I would say that there was a pretty great turnout- all in all I think we were missing about 6 direct family members- that is not bad for this EXPANSIVE family! We spent the day at the West End Beach and played Volleyball (yeah right-I didn't, the rest of them did!), Tennis, swam, ate and Erin S. Kaitlin and I (yes we are all GREAT friends AND SOOOOO Close to being ALL family!!!) took out the Challenger 2000....a rubber boat and cruised the lake with a Corona in hand for about an hour. Erin S. was nervous that we weren't going to make it back to shore, but with my direction and her and Kaitlin's paddling we were VERY successful!
We had such a good time with the family and friends. I got to meet some of Aaron's cousins that I had never met before which was fantastic! Of course I got harrassed about "when are you going to have a baby!!" , but I cooly shrugged them off saying "LAY OFF ME! GEEEEZ!" Hahaha Ok I wasn't that harsh, but it was close with a good laugh at the end...EVERY time!
I am so excited for the next family gathering and to get to spend more time with my new family, and now friends!
