Family Reunion - Day 3

Today was the last full day of the reunion. Time has gone by way too fast, but I have loved spending time with my siblings and their families. The only thing I don't like about living in South Carolina is that I only get to see my family once a year. I wish that my kids had more opportunities to play with their cousins.

Today, after more morning swimming, we headed to Pioneer Park, which was a neat cactus garden with a small stream and provided lots of red rocks for climbing. I took several pictures of the cactus, which I found beautiful.
Purple prickly pear 
Jalen and Hailey 
The Saint George Temple - where my parents were married. 
We saw a desert tortoise! 
 
We were overrun by black ants. At least they don't bite like fire ants!
 St. George Temple
Clark's family 
 Most of us. 
 Scott and Beth 
We went to get drinks at Swig and then it was back in the pool. 
 Leda and the Swan 
Pizza and poop 
Black and white swans 
Attacking the swan 
 Taking a flying leap. 
The dads became a human diving board. 
Little mermaids 


Jumping through the tube.
 
Keep away got kind of crazy. 
 Pizza! 
 These two littles are so fun to watch. 
So tired! But doesn't want to stop swimming. 
 I could watch Rowan "dive" all day long. She is fearless and does this one time after another. 
One of my brothers went home today. The rest of us leave tomorrow. We'll head to my sisters and hopefully make our flights on Sunday so we can then turn around and start a road trip to upstate New York.

Families are forever and I sure love mine!
