If all family reunions were this fun, I think every family would reunite regularly! We "camped" out at Uncle Duffy and Aunt Judy's house in Spokane for the weekend, enjoying lots of laughter and relaxing with our Finnestad/Rabb family. Here's our trailer in front of Uncle Duffy's massive workshop and a view of their house from the street.
The kids played hard the entire time and had a blast picking raspberries, riding scooters, and exploring with their cousins.
James spent quite a bit of time at the game table with the adults learning how to play spades. I'm sure Sue was having flashbacks of Jimmy at that age, always wanting to be with the adults to learn the strategy behind the games they were playing.
Aliya enjoyed spending time with her Great-Grandma Finnestad, thoroughly intrigued by the sewing projects she was working on.
We were quite surprised to discover we are *kind of* related to Jon Jancola, as the father of two of his sisters just happens to be our Great Uncle! What a small world!! "What ~ You know a Jancola?"
"I do! I know Jon Jancola...wait? He's your BROTHER??"
In the middle of the reunion, we switched gears to participate in Aunt Janice's wedding. Our Great-Uncle Jim is a pastor and was able to perform the ceremony.
At the end of an incredibly hot day, we all cooled off with some major water fun! Certainly one of the highlights of the weekend.
