Low Family Reunion

We had such a fun time at the Low Family Reunion.  We played volleyball, rock climbed, played paintball, played lots of games together and swam together.  Here are several pics of the fun week we had!

It rained like crazy a couple times.  Left a full rainbow behind

Dice game was a hit!

We enjoyed listening to Walker report on his mission, as well as Tyler and Brayden talk about their newly accepted mission calls.

Cousins enjoying the pond

Is this crawdad dead or alive?

Oliver said on the way there, "This reunion better be fun!"  I think it met his satisfaction.

Crayfish from the pond.

Beautiful sunset 





Lucy wanted to try rowing in a rowboat instead of paddling in a kayak all the time.


Oliver gets ready for a killer serve.






Nice form Oli!

Walker does a graceful backwards slam.

Cathi serves it up.


Oli did so good everybody called the game "Oliball"

Such finesse

Don't miss Cathi!

Oliver makes a last ditch effort to keep the ball up by kicking it.

Josh gets it over.




It's OK Cathi.  Good try.

As Grandpa would always ask, "Has your Mom been feeding you hormones?"  Next year we'll see if Isaac passes up Becky.

Fourth of July Celebration in Logan


 This weekend we went up to the cabin and on Friday night.  We went to the Utah State University stadium and watched Ryan Shupe and the Rubberbands in concert.  The kids earlier in the day had agreed to soak in the 58°F Logan River for one minute in order to earn a concession at the concert/fireworks show.

Some of them did it.

On Saturday morning we all went to Bear Lake to meet up with Chad for a training swim.  It was beautiful and we both saw several large fish.  Even though we all smothered sun screen on each other, we all got sun burnt.  Except for Cathi who stayed under the sun tent the whole time.  I guess the only smart one.

We played night games on Saturday evening and had a lot of fun up at the cabin.





Hobo Spider we saw at the cabin.

Cathi's Bear Lake Marathon and the weekend at the cabin


This last weekend Jacob and Lucy went to youth conference up in Island Park while Cathi and the rest of us went up to the cabin and Mom ran her 108th marathon at Bear Lake.  We did a lot of playing.  I had a noodle light saber battle.  I was able to lure Oliver to the dark side so it was me and him against the Jedi group of Sam, Isaac and Jonas.  They were ruthless and tried to take me down like a pack of wolves, but Oliver had my back and we were semi-victorious!

The boys prompt a Jedi Vs. Sith lightsaber battle.

They were ruthless but somehow I convinced Oliver to join the dark side and I had an ally!

Here I'm being overtaken by Master Sam while my apprentice Oliver attempts to save his Sith Father. Isaac, I guess is using the force to heal his eye that popped out during a recent lightsaber battle that he lost.

Yeah Mom!

108th marathon complete!

Boys will be boys.

The muscular marvel Jonas!

It wouldn't be a cabin visit without a cold water challenge.  Go Sam!

Where's my $1  says Sam.

Oliver has no body fat, so this is tougher for him than the normal human.
