Bloomfield Reunion at Winchester Idaho

Andrew was doing great after his surgery. So even though we left later than planned so that we could make sure he was doing okay, we were able to meet up with our wonderful friends, the Bloomfileds, for our own little reunion.

It was so wonderful to see my best friend, Chauntelle, again! Nathan and Jim seemed to have a good time as well. The kids were all very excited to see each other. Nick met up with his friend, R, who is only 6 weeks older than he is. Tiana was able to play a lot with L who is only 2 days younger than she is (Tiana was born 5 1/2 weeks early on L's due date). Ben met two new friends and loved having two boys to play with! G is four and T is almost 2. I will let the pictures tell most of what fun was had!
The hammock got plenty of use. What a beautiful lake! This in Winchester Lake, Idaho.
Of course we had to fit in a little geocaching! Nathan and Jim took some of the kids, "We found it!"
The netted "game tent" was always in use!
Ben and "the boys".

We went to the Wolf reserve and saw a few of the beautiful creatures in the wild!

Movie night while camping! Ah, yes, we know how to "rough it"! Notice L holding Andrew. She couldn't get enough of holding him, too cute!

Of course we had to get some fishing it. This was the perfect fishing lake for little kids. They caught so many fish! We didn't have to wait long before getting a bite! Mostly Blue Gill and Trout. We threw back everything though. The kids just had fun catching them. Nick is just about to cast in this shot.

G is playing with the fishing worms. I LOVE the look on Ben's face! "I can't believe you're touching that dude!"

Nathan helped Ben in his first fishing experience. "Hey son, you got one!"

One of Ben's catches. Like father like son!

And last but not least...lots of wild flowers were picked for mommy.
