Hair Family Reunion

We were in Flagstaff for the 4th of July, at the Hair Family Reunion. We stayed in cabins on a military base. There were morning calisthenics. There were matching T-shirts. There were mountain trails full of pine trees that smelled like vanilla and sounded like the ocean when the wind blew. There were 40 kids running wild and when it got dark and I was sure they would all fall over from exhaustion, someone gave them all flashlights and they went insane. There was a long and heated basketball game between Clint and Burke (two ex-basketball players in their 20s) and two 10-year-olds. At dinner one night my mom started dancing. There was unlimited free baby sitting.

I didn't take very many photos, but here are few shots.

Jordynn shows Roan around. She's got a thing for babies and spent the weekend taking care of Roan (and Davis, though I don't have any photos of those two).

Roan makes demands.

It's impossible to prepare for the amount of athletic activity my family packs into a single weekend.

Grandpa Mac and Roan in Phoenix

We never know what he is talking about. He is possibly outraged that Grandma Mac won't let him pour water on her head.

Group photo in matching T-shirts to come!
