Jeppson Reunion 2012

Every two years, my sweet little Grandma and her posterity gather for a family reunion in McCall, Idaho. It's heaven on earth. Boating, water-skiing, wake-boarding, camp fires, beautiful mountains, indoor plumbing, and showers. My kind of camping.

There is also a zip-line that I've been avoiding for the past several years. Last year I was pregnant so I got a free pass. But this year, no such luck. I had to take the plunge.

Here I am all strapped in, trying to act totally calm like I'm not about to leap off a huge pole.

Up I go...

and up...

...and up...

...and UP...

...When you get to the top, the guy up there tries to calm the faint of heart by saying that we could both go down together in a minivan and the zip-line would not break. It's still hard to jump off that platform.

Kirk did it too, see? SO brave.

The harness is so flattering, right? :o)

There is always a family talent show in which I am usually just a spectator, but not this year. My sister created a circus act for us to participate in, and I cooperated because the only thing I had to do was wear a feather on my head and assist the "World's Strongest Men."

Kirk "tried" and failed to lift the very heavy foam dumbbells. Dayton then demonstrated his amazing baby strength as he easily lifted up the bar. It was so cute.

We also helped out with the Pirate Treasure Hunt for the kids. Here's our scurvy crew.

There was lots more fun stuff, but I am so bad about taking pictures while I'm having fun.  Did I mention we celebrated Granny's 90th birthday?? For real!  She's the cutest 90-year-old woman I've ever met.  Love her.
