Parkin Reunion

A couple of weeks ago my side of the family had a fun unofficial reunion. Those members of the family living in Utah met those of us living in California halfway...in Las Vegas. We stayed at several units of a timeshare and at some point during the week, each of my siblings were able to be there at least part of the time. Not everyone was there at the same time, but I was one of the few that got to see everyone during our stay. The girls and I drove out and Aaron met us there later in the week (he flew to Vegas straight from a class he had to teach in Reno, and then we all got to drive home together.)

The weather was hot, but we had a lot of fun mostly just hanging out. While we were there we went bowling, played tennis, played Frisbee golf, played games, visited circus circus, and did a lot of swimming in the pool. The cousins had a blast together. Trenton and his family got there the night before we left so we didn't get any pictures with them, but I'm so glad we got to at least visit for a little while. Like I said, we were all there at different times so we were unable to get a group picture. But here are a few of what I did capture with the camera:
