Since two of us are in Boise now and that’s more Wesels in one place than anywhere else, we did our first official Wesel family reunion the first week of August.
We knocked the torturous “No one wants to do this, but we haven’t had it done it in 13 years ” activity out of the way first.
Family Pictures!
(Now I’m going to make you go through the same torturous experience vicariously! Mwa ha ha ha ha ha!)
The kids were mostly well behaved though we did have a few meltdowns.
Other activities that were a little more fun were the water park:
Silver City, an old mining town up in the Owyhee mountains ![]()
Alli planned the First Annual Reunion Olympics
The Cotton Ball Stuck to Your Nose with Vaseline Event
Yes, he cheated. By sniffing.
And my own personal favorite, The Move the Cookie Down Your Face and into Your Mouth Event. This was HILARIOUS to watch as people contorted their faces in all kinds of ways to move the cookie.
We had some late night fondue at the Melting Pot downtown.
Lincoln really liked the skewers! ![]()
We spent some time at Aunt Jane’s too and hardly any of my pictures turned out well-except for these two cute ones.
I tried to get a picture of the infamous water fight, but this is all I got. ![]()
And just a few last cute ones from the day we took our family pictures.
Lincoln and Liberty aka Linc and Lib
I loved this one of the Boise hills.
I’d say we did pretty good for our first reunion. Our air conditioning did go out for several days and we did miss the U.S. women’s gymnastics team win the gold, but overall we survived those very tough challenges. I’m sure everyone cannot WAIT to do it again next year!!!
Annual???? What's this annual business?
