Sim's Family Reunion

At the end of June we had the Sim’s family reunion for the descendants of Grandma Hunter’s parents.  Growing up I remember going to these reunions. I haven’t gone to one in a very long time. Therefore it was slightly disconcerting to see all the extended cousins that I remembered as being at the most high schoolers having their own high schoolers.
One of the first things that was on the agenda was the presentation of awards.  Our family cleaned up on the pre-reunion awards.

Some were more excited for their rewards (Andrew) than others (Grandma).
A family reunion isn't a reunion unless there are some kind of games.  The planner of this specific reunion did  a great job at creating interesting games.

Unfortunately while the Stuart branch excels at being old, young, and driving we do not excel in actual competitions. While thoroughly enjoying ourselves we did not win a single event.  Which is all right; because we tromped the rest of the attendees in the most important part of a summer reunion...

Getting wet.












In between soaking each other we also found some time to play Frisbee.
