Peterson Family Reunion

Last week my parents rented a cabin in Cascade.  It was so fun to have everyone together for a few days!  It was perfect, we boated, fished, ate, golfed, ate, road motorcycles, ate, stayed up late every night playing games, and then we would eat a little more and go to bed.   
A nice self timer shot of the whole group.
Caden loves his Aunt Erica(s)
Ethan snoozing on Grammy, and Grammy holding his Star Wars fishing pole for him.

This next series of pictures cracks me up.  Ethan loves catching the fish, even eating them, but he will NOT touch them!  He has some quirks about things that are so similar to my brother James it cracks me up!  So Ethan reeling in the fish with Uncle James was totally anti-climatic compared to the dramatics that happened when my Dad tried to get Ethan to hold the fish for a picture.

Watching the fish be netted.
Looking a little nervous while Grandpa gets it ready to be held for the picture.
Grandpa picking up the fish after it wiggled and Ethan threw it.
Ethan cracking up after he threw it again when it wiggled near his hand.  After about 5 attempts, we settled without a picture of Ethan holding his fish.
Clark learned how to ride a motorcycle on this trip.  The boys enjoyed lots of rides.
Caden's pile of pine cones made while waiting for a motorcycle ride.
Even Erica fished for a perch off the dock, and caught one within 30 seconds.
Even though it was rainy Ethan couldn't resist getting in the water while we fished on the dock in his sweat pants.

Me looking rather pregnant with my little perch, caught with Caden Star Wars' fishing pole.


Another self timer shot of the whole group.
A self timer shot that didn't quite work out.


Such a fun trip!  We loved it!
