Jensen Family Reunion

Tim & I went to the Jensen Family reunion the weekend before the 24th.  (For those of you that don't know that's Tim's Mom's Mother's side of the family.)  We go camping near Burley, Idaho every year.  Grandma Dee and Gwen always put some much thought and love into the reunion.  This year was a birthday party theme.  They gave out cute invitations with a balloon attached to each family. We all got cake stands and decorated no calorie cakes. (made from towels)  We also exchanged presents, played games and went to the lake.  Tim tried to teach Kiska how to swim.  That was an epic fail.  Poor Kiska couldn't swim to save her life.  She loves the water but won't go past her chest.  A big thank you to Grandma Dee and Gwen for all their hard work.  Love you!

History:  Here's a little story about the first family reunion I went to with Tim.  In 2009 Tim and I started dating.  Our anniversary was June 12. (I can't believe it's already been 3 years!)  Tim took me to the family reunion in July.  I had never met his parents, let alone his extended family.  When we got there it was night time.  All of his cousins were getting ready to go play spotlight.  It's a night game they play every year.  Tim pretty much said, "Hey Mom this is Heather.  Heather, Mom."..."Babe I'm going to go play spotlight, see you when I get back." He didn't even invite me to go with him. lol.  There I was standing by the fire....alone.  Luckily his Mom and Aunt Sandy are really friendly.  They made me feel right at home. Hours later Tim came back. He didn't even realize what he did.

Really Tim???  Good thing I love him so much!

He's never going to live this one down....

Such a gorgeous sunset
