King Family Reunion 2014 Part Three

The place we always stay has this sad little water park that we never go to when we're down here. It's pretty expensive and there's not much to it, but the regular pool was radioactive or something so we all got free passes. The kids (and Mike Smith- I saw you flying down the water slides with your grandkids!) loved it

Gaelen, Haley and Jessie

Jessi and Allison

The laziest river ever, no current, you just had to kinda swim it.

No family reunion is complete without bags...

That was a terrible toss Mal

Had you even played bags before?

Dick and Don creaming Mal and the newbie.

Just kidding, I have no idea who won, I think I was taking a nap with Charlie at this point.

Yep, even more to come, I still have all the volleyball and family pics.

It is so great that we have made sure these kids could grow up with a ton of cousins like we got to. We all had so much fun with each other. Yes, they are second (?) cousins,but we don't tell them that. They all have such a blast together. To make sure they get a lot of time together, so we let them all, I mean ALL, sleep on the floor in Dick and Joyce's room (How in the WORLD did we get away with that???)

Jack (Lea's) and Charlie (Mollie's). SO many little girls, we put the boys in the walk in closet. Boys Club!

Getting these kids to calm down for bed time is a ridiculous task, so I pulled out the best book ever - (The True Story of the Three Little Pigs- if you have kids and don't own this book, buy it now) Worked like a charm.
