Our reunion went until the 29th of June, but Garrett's sister Meggin and her family had to leave on the 28th. They had to fly to California to go to a wedding on Jake's side of the family. So, we took pictures of everyone in the morning and then they left.
Jim and Georgia with all of their grandkids. 13 in total.
The original McKibben family: Savann, Georgia, Jim, Garrett, Josh and Meggin
Later that day, (cold and cloudy day), we decided to take the kids to see a movie and so we went to see Brave, which was a cute movie.
The next day, Josh and Tanya and their family left first. And the rest of us packed up and cleaned so we could be out of there by 11 am. We all headed back to our house because Savann and her family were staying a few more days with us. And since Jim and Georgia bought the house here, they decided to stay for a couple more days and leave their car parked at their new house and fly home instead. This way, they could stay and spend 4th of July with us, instead of taking 4-5 days to drive back to Ohio.
July 1st was Noah's birthday (more on that later) and Devon had gone to the store with us to pick out a present for Noah. Devon wanted Noah to open it before they had to leave for the airport that afternoon.
We all went to church, but had to leave after Sacrament meeting, to take them to the airport. We needed all the adults to go so we could pick up the two cars that Meggin and Josh left there when they came to the airport.
Later that night, we had a family home evening lesson on the creation. We took a walk and each person had a camera and was supposed to take a picture of something that Heavenly Father created on each of the days. So we had to take a picture of light/darkness, water/earth, animals, people, etc. The kids loved it because they love taking pictures. Between the 7 cameras that were being used, I bet we (mostly the younger kids) took around 500 pictures...on a 10 minute walk. It was crazy.
These are some of the pictures...
Sydney stayed with us for another two weeks because she was going on trek with us.

Looked like a fun family reunion. Did you look through all of the pictures that the kids took on your walk? That's crazy!
Ya,I looked through most of them, but it got really old after awhile!
