Family reunion day 1

To start our wonderful KFR we took the whole gang to Carekeek park. Now sadly enough I had to be downtown for part of the morning but David made sure they all had a great time!
Everyone waiting for the train.A little on the chili side :-)Finding gooey treasures.He is going to marry me!Playing fun games with Aunt Melanie and Grandma.
Notice my child just observes.
Everyone before I got there.After I got there Mom, Megan, Jared, Kylie, Dad and I went for a little hike while the others took the little ones home for a nap.

I know!!
He is truly scary, can you see where he is?..... besides the ice!!!
Yes, we took 18 people to Pike Place Market, 9 adults 9 kids, we had it all under control....
or so we thought :-(
You see, we got there as they were closing the place. We were sad that the kids would not see the flying fish at all. Then one of the workers handed a bag to Kylie and then told the kids to put the squid in there.
Gross, but they LOVED it!
There in the red hat is the nice man that let the kids have such an experience!
I really think we just wanted to go home and found himself a few little elves.
How many little ones can you fit on top of the gold pig?
Little Mathew was being so kind and stayed on Ryan's back.
Jared was a little confused :-(

After such an experience and finding food somewhere else we took a little (long) walk to the Sculpture park to have our picnic.
Dad loved seeing these.
and I loved seeing this.
It was a very fun first day except for Amy and her family, they were traveling all day. We tried to hurry but she was at our place before we were :-( Sorry Amy, we were so happy to see you and your family :-)
