So every presidential election year James' extended family does a family reunion. It's always fun to see people you haven't seen for almost 1/2 a decade. So this time it was in Ventura CA, which by the way is a beautiful smaller city north of LA. The weather was ABSOLUTELY perfect, well almost. It was a little colder than we like, but then again we're Phoenicians who think that the summer should have lows in the 80's. Here's the only picture we took of setting up. As you can see Ryan's a big help to his uncle Jayson in setting up a tent.
On Saturday the 19th we went over to the beach as a group. The boys borrowed boggie boards from James' cousin Clark. Here they are "having fun". Guess who had the most fun.
We had a great time, and Nana and Poppie got elected to plan the next one, so we can only assume it'll be up in the great northwest, right...

After a couple of hours swimming and playing on the beach we all got cleaned up and took a big family photo -we'll add a copy as soon as we get one from Poppie. Here's one of everyone getting ready and our boys playing... IN THE DIRT.
James took this photo, from standing in the line waiting for the cameras on timers to take the photo of all of us. That's his cousin Angie's husband and his dad (the boy's Poppie) running back.

Looks like you're having a great summer! I love James' family tradition of having an extended reunion every 4 years. I know how much you love all things Disney, but can't believe you were there the whole entire day - you are two brave parents!!
