In mid July my whole family got together for the first time in 4 years. We gathered in my hometown of Ignacio CO.

We enjoyed having a few days to catch up and spend some time together. The kids had a great time playing with all their cousins. Elin thought she was in heaven with so many kids around.
We went for a picnic to Lemon Lake. The boys did some fishing, Elin waded in the creek and we all spent some time eating and relaxing.
Since we had the whole family together we had an early birthday party for Elin who was turning 1 on July 29th and Marty who was turning 11 on July 25th.
It was a busy weekend but we had a lot of fun I am so thankful that we were all able to get together.
