Family Reunion

A couple of weeks ago we were able to host our Jacobson Family Reunion. All my brothers and sisters and their families were able to attend....minus the brothers-in-law and my great big nephew Jake. We had SO MUCH FUN!! We had skits and a talent show, fireworks and a water party and visited both of the great grandparents. We stayed up late and woke-up early and just enjoyed being together!!  When we all show up there are 43 of us.  WE ARE A CROWD!! We even had to rent a porta-potty because I only have 1 bathroom and I knew that wouldn't work for 43 people!! :)

This is grandpa and the boys helping hold down the air mattresses!! I think grandpa was trying to get a nap....hard to do under a doggie pile of little men! :) 

We took all the kids to the temple.  The Idaho Falls temple is the one that everyone of us - including our parents- were married in and some of the grandkids had never seen it up close. 

And here are the two trouble makers.....it is because of these two that we have

THIS!

This is 28 of the 29 grandkids that my parents have!  WHAT A BLESSING!!  We went into the visitors center and had a neat experience there.  I have a FIRM TESTIMONY (and our experience at the visitors center only strengthened it) that the temple is the one place where heaven and earth combine. 

We had a great 3 days together and can't wait for the next time!!
