Phippen Family Reunion

We spent the weekend with my family out at Minidoka Dam for our family reunion. All 8 sisters and my 1 brother's wife were there. My brother couldn't make it, but it was fun to see all the cousins together, especially the "sextuplets."
Here they are lined up youngest to oldest. Jack (1 week old), Paisley (4 months), Ashlynn (4 months), Claire (6 months - in red and blue), Seth (9 months - in red onesie), Wyatt (9 months - whose face is covered by Seth's hand).



Jack hanging out in the shade. He was really good!

It was fun to see the family. I see some more than others, but it was fun to all be together. We also went out to Albion to see some family history sites. Some people think I'm crazy for taking a week old baby out and about like that, but I feel great and we kept him safe enough.

That is fun to have so many cousins the same age! And it's great to hear you are feeling good! Don't worry about people thinking you are crazy for taking your baby out. It always makes me laugh that people are so opinionated when it comes to how you take care of your baby. Oh yeah, Tyson told me he saw Chad at the conference. Funny!

Hey there!! Congrats on the little guy! He is really cute, and I automatically thought he looked just like Ana when I saw his first pictures! I'm glad that everything went well! I'm 26 days away from the due date, so we'll see how the next 3 weeks go! We're excited and have most of our stuff, but I guess you can't be completely prepared. I'm sure we'll be suprised! I have a little present for you too! Let us know you're plans around the 4th -- maybe we can drop by and see you on the 3rd on our way to BL, or on our way back that next Monday! We're excited to see you and the new baby! Good luck with everything!

I didn't realize you had such a large family & so many sisters. Wow! How fun that there are so many cousins the same age. I had that growing up and loved it. Glad you could spend time with your family.
