Lacey this one is for you!

And for every other person who thought I fell off the blogger world. To be honest, now that this site is blocked at work, I'd almost forgotten about it. But Lacey reminded me that there is still joy in blogging- even if that joy isn't escaping from the mundane work day.
Our most recent adventure was a couple of weeks ago when Jason and I took the kids up to Idaho for the Godfrey family reunion. What a blast! They are such a fun family. Let me set the scene for one of my favorite moments there. It's a pretty, cool afternoon in Bonnie's yard. The mountain scenery surrounding us. The adults are casually reminiscing while the kids are running around with buckets of water. Each child trying to be the one to soak the "chosen" adult. It soon became apparent that my husband was that chosen one, when my daughter and some scheming cousins of hers surprised Jason with a couple of cups full of water. The war was on. Jason began chasing the kids wailing his arms about in hopes of catching at least one of them. It didn't take to long until he had a prisoner of his own. And into the water filled raft she went. But much to Jason's surprise there behind him stood Benji. All six foot five of him. Standing there, waiting. With little time to react, Jason was once again wailing his arms about, this time in an attempt to be let down. Oh he was let down alright. Once he had the opportunity to stand on two feet again he was ten pounds heavier- soaked from head to toe. To this day I can still hear the swish-swash of his shoes as he walks by. My only regret- I didn't have the camera! I can't wait to see what happens at the next reunion. I'll make sure to pack extra clothes and have my camera in hand.
