The Good 'Ol Bundy Reunion

For the 4th of July this year I was able to attend my family reunion with my parents and Drake. I haven't been able to go for 3 years so I excited to attend. This reunion is pretty impressive in the respect that over 1000 people attend up on top of a mountain in the middle of no where(dirt roads the whole way), camping with no plumbing (worst part about it!), and a group of people that have respect of ancestry as I have never seen before. I have grown up going to the Bundy reunion and have such fond memories going each year. I missed Jordan there but to be honest I don't know how sad he was! Dirt isn't his thing. :) Drake did awesome the whole time. Luckily it was beautiful weather so it wasn't to hot, he took naps in the stroller, and we shared a tent together. He was perfect as always!

Look how cute he was in his 4th of July outfit!

My Mom and I convinced my Dad and Uncle to run in the foot races. Every age group races a short distance and yes, I am way to much of a wimp to race. I refuse to be the one that biffs it in the dirt!

Me and Drako

I got such a crack out of this, you can tell I am smiling way to big. Dad was such a good sport wearing the bjorn!

The whole time at the reunion Dad introduced Drake as his "Blue eyed boy", such a proud grandpa!

Such a happy boy in his festive jammies!

The dance is always a highlight of the reunion. All the cowboys get on their wranglers, boots, belt buckles and hats on for the dance. We weren't quite that dressed up but my Dad is an amazing swing dancer and my Mom and I had a blast being twirled around on the dance floor.

Happy 4th of July!
