Blackhurst Family Reunion 2009

Blackhurst Family Reunion 2009.......McCall, Idaho.
This past weekend the entire Blackhurst family gathered for a family reunion.  Considering it was 103 degrees in Boise it was a perfect weekend to escape the scorching heat and retreat to the mountains.  It was sunny and warm, while the lake was perfectly cool.  We all enjoyed boating, eating, sun bathing, talking, fiesta dinner night, talent show, and a pinata!(great idea Summer and Cindy we all had some fun)  It was a circus with all of the nieces and nephews running around, but it kept everyone entertained.  It was a perfect weekend with all of my parents ten kids in attendance.  We couldn't have asked for better weather or a nicer place to gather (thanks to the Carberry's letting us use their cabin).  What a blast!  We will all remember how much fun we had.  Looking forward to many more family reunions with more children running around.

Ryan is such a kid at heart.  Look at them enjoying their ice cream cones.

Listening to Ryan(Emily's boyfriend) jam on the guitar.  Evan was really focused and loved listening to him sing.
