We had a family reunion for Bryan's side in Bakersfield, with the excuse of Jon's birthday to get together. There was white water rafting on Friday, which I opted out of, having just had a baby and none of my kids were old enough to go- so it was perfect. We stayed at Kim's house and the boys swam, in the AM with the dads that stayed behind and then in the afternoon with Nannie. The adults went to dinner in two shifts- which was fabulous, but I did feel like I was missing an arm (or some other vital body part) because baby i stayed at Kim's.
Saturday was the big birthday party, complete with Bryan smoking pulled pork and tri-tip, a chocolate fountain,
two bounce houses and
two pinatas.
It was great to be able to spend time with all of Bryan's siblings and even Bryan's grandma, who lives in Hawaii now, was able to be there.
This is a
small portion of the photos that we took that weekend.
I probably took about 100 photos of the all kids with the pinatas, so I limited the ones here to just my kids hitting and of Bryan's brother *repairing* the pinata.

looks like everyone had a great time!!!
What happened to being blind folded??? I bet they got it opened super fast because they could see what they were doing.
That was a lot of fun!!!! We were glad you could make it. We will see you this weekend for the blessing!!!!
That does look like tons of fun. Once Jakey hit Karen really hard in the head with a croquet mallet trying to bust open a pinata. We've got it on video somewhere. Hilarious!
Big A has a great stance.
I'm sure the kids appreciate the bum shot as they get their candy.
I can't believe what a party that Jon gets! Is he the favorite or what - 2 bounce houses? white water rafting?
I'm sad you missed out on the rafting. Remember the good ol' days at Flaming Gorge going down the Green River?
I love little a's candy face....I know how he LOVES his candy.
I am glad you guys had fun...sure likes you know how to party!!!
Looks like a lot of fun!!!
Pinatas are the best! I'd like to see the rest of the hundred pics though. :)

Cam and I are going to be in Bakersfield this coming weekend. If only the timing had been right . . .
Batter up.

We haven't done a pinata at a party yet but the girls LOVE them. They are such a blast and it is so fun to see the kids hit it..or try! :)
