Shupe-Wadman Family Reunion Fun

This weekend was the family reunion for The Shupe Wadman Family.
Robin and I went and had a great time. Spence, Mandy and the kids came up for the day.
This is the family picture for the weekend. Crazy Huh?

This is Lois and Royal Shupe. They are the children of John & Murial who are cousins to mon.

There was several games played by the kids and this was the pie eating contest. It was the funniest part of the reunion

Alan is the grandson to Lois Shupe, he did his best to win, but just didn't eat fast enough. We all had such a great time.

It was suprising who got a pie in the face Matt took it pretty good. I think that Clara had more fun washing down her husband.LOL

Thinking that Alice was behind his pie in the face, Matt got his revenge with a returned pie in the face. Wow what a day.

It was fun for all. We will sure plan on making the reunion next year. Getting to know Mom's family is the best part, they are all very nice people.

Bath time Fun at Grandma's house

Mandy & Spence cam over today, Spence helped Robin
with our basement, they are at the point that
they can do the mudding. So after dinner grandma
decided that Taylar needed a bath. Seth was spending
the night with his Uncle Troy & Aunt Jody so he
didn't come over.


I can't believe how Taylar loves her bath, she
takes to the water like a fish. We could have
played all night long.


Look at me Mom, I love the water.


What an angel, Taylar is the most cuddly
baby I have ever seen. I just love it.


After getting Taylar dressed we had fun
playing on grandma's bed. She was giggling
so much I almost wet my pants laughing
with her.


Taylar is so clean now she can go home
and go to bed. Grandma just loves it when
the kids come over and she can give
them a bath.

Seth's 3rd Birthday

The family celebrated Seth's 3rd birthday last Sunday.

All the kids had a great time.
Robin and Joel has alot of fun.

Jackson was in a happy mood all day

We barbecued and after dinner it was time to open gifts

I don't know who had more fun Seth or the rest of the kids.

Bear Lake Fun (July 4th, 2008)

This July 4th was our annual family & friends trip to BEAR LAkE. It is something that we have all been doing for the past 20 years. The pictures below show how much fun we all had.
Taylar was having fun in her play pen while everyone
got their swimming suits on.


Spence had as much fun as the kids playing in the water.


The background is such a beautiful setting, it was
a wonderful weekend full of sun & fun.


Taylar was such a good sport, she had a great time &
didn't give mom much of a fuss at all.


We where able to get Hunter on the tube with Travis &
Troy. We couldn't believe he had such a great time.
Robin keep the boat at a slow enough speed that helped
keep the fun in it.


Someone had to much fun driving the boat. It didn't
take to much for him to fall asleep, but at the helm?
It's a good thing that dad was close at hand to drive. LOL


Mom & Dad Thackeray drove up for the day, we where hoping
that they would decide to spend the night, no luck there.
But Coy has such a good time with the kids, we just love
seeing them come. Next time we will steal the keys & they
will have to stay the night.


Is this a shock or what? I got Coy on the 4 wheeler & as
you can see by the look on her face I don't think she
was so sure about me driving.


You can see by her face that Taylar jut loves
Grandma Great.


Robin has just as much fun as the little ones.


Dave & Fran came with us this year,
it was so wonderful to have them
their, we just love spending time
with them. Joel just loved riding
on grandpa Dave's shoulders.


Our boat hardly sat at the shore, we had it running most
of the time.


Grandma just loves playing with the kids also.


Hunter & Seth played all day long.


Can you tell by this picture that we never
pack light.


Taylar took to the water better than brother.


See what I mean.


What more can I say.


Taylar just loves the water.


She must take after her mom.


Look at this sleeping beauty


It was a long day.


Time to go back to camp.

It was such a wonderful weekend, we did miss Jay & his family,
maybe next year.
Thanks to all our family & friends for a great weekend.

Joel's 2nd Birthday

Today was Joel's 2nd Birthday, Crystal had a party at
her house for the family. The kids had a great time,
in fact all the adults had as much fun as the kids.

Crystal served dinner for the party and as you can
see Kendra enjoyed dinner very much, Kendra is such
a cutie pie.

Chance played in the water with the other little
ones. Crystal did a real good job to make Joel's
party for fun all the kids.

Taylar was a sport, she even wore a party hat.
What a doll, she is now sitting up on her own.

Time to open the gifts, Crystal had to coax Joel
to open them all he wanted to do was just play
with the other kids.

He made out like a bandit, watching his expression
was the funnest part of the night.

With each gift Joel got even funnier, I think
he was just going through the motions just to
humor mom.

Joel got some funny string for his birthday,
however he didn't think it was very funny
when grandma Carolyn sprayed him all over
with it. He ran to grandma Fran to hoping
she would save him. LOL

Grandma Great Thackeray just knew she was going
to end up on my blog. I warned her if she
made a funny face I would put it on the blog
anyway. I will always cherish the memories
we have with Coy and Jay.

Time for the cake, it looks yummy. It tasted just
as good as it looked.

Joel was a character when he was blowing
out the candles.

He even enjoyed eating it as much as
serving it to everyone.

He had to give grandmama Delores a taste

Next Seth needed to get his taste

But of course grandma Carolyn wanted one

and last grandpa Beano wanted a taste.

Little Jackson was only interested in
eating.

Everyone has such a good time it is always so much
fun to get together with all the family.
We couldn't be more blessed.
