Family Reunion Gone Good

This year for our Wilde family reunion we went to Afton, Wyoming. Our camp ground was so beautiful. This years reunion was the first one since my uncle Kevin died and I personally think that it was our closest. Grandma is writing a life sketch on Kevin's life and giving a copy to all of us. Grandpa said jokingly that this was probably the only reunion that Kevin has come to for the hole time. This year none of the kids or parents got in any arguments and that really surprised us all.
The 2 years ago when we were at that same campground, when we went to the lake, I was the only one that got a leech. Then this year I was the one that got the leech again because me and my cousins got on tubes and went out into the middle of the lake. It was pretty cool.
I rolled my ankle chasing my cousin right before we learned how to line dance to the Cotton Eye Joe. It was so swollen that I had to squeeze my foot into my tennis shoe. I could barely walk without a pain shooting up my leg. I some how managed to get out there and dance. My cousins and I made a new mocarina while dancing. Funny, funny.
We had a great time playing Free which is pretty much a tradition when ever there are enough grand kids to play together. All it is for anyone who doesn't know, it's hind and go seek except there is a base and you try to touch the base before they say 1-2-3 on who ever it is. The kids were always doing something together. It was so much fun. All in All I had a really enjoyable time. It was probably one of my favorite Wilde reunions!!
And there is less than a week left until I leave for New Jersey and New York with my aunt and uncle. We will be spending a week in a beach house. Then we will just hang around the city and stuff so I am so excited!! I am so excited to go back and see everyone again.
