Nuttall Family Reunion in Puerto Penasco

2008.6.20 Puerto Penasco

The family reunion was a great success. It was so fun to see everyone and the place we stayed in was phenomenal.

Some of the highlights were:
-family dinners in the huge dining area
-watching the cousins play
-finding hermit crabs on the beach
-body surfing on the waves
-Mariachis during dinner

We also spent a day shopping for food/supplies for a local orphanage. We brought art supplies, bubbles and pinata to play with the kids. We also arranged for some clowns to come and perform. It was fun for us and appreciated by the kids at the orphanage. It felt good to stock their pantries and was a good experience for our kids.

Amie and Dave came in town 2 days early and stayed 1 night after the reunion. It was fun having them in town. The night before the reunion we had 18 people sleeping at our house. We actually fit 6 kids in the girl's room alone. The cousins seemed to enjoy it.

Now we are trying to get back to some sense of normalcy. The girls are in swimming lessons and not much else. When Tim was in town he rigged up an Xbox to store our movie on so we don't have to deal with the disks anymore. It's been awesome. As an added bonus, Matt and I have been playing some games...nothing too crazy yet, just the Bible game, but it's been fun.
