Celebrating the 4th with Family.

Fourth of July 2008 will be remembered as fun times at the family reunion! We roadtripped to Omaha for a family reunion with the Leahy side of the family. Scott's father was one of 7 siblings, and nearly 40 family members joined together over the holiday weekend. We hadn't seen some of these aunts and uncles since Luke was a baby; others we hadn't seen since our wedding almost 9 years ago! It was so great to see everyone and catch up! Here are some trip highlights:

• Driving in a caravan with Eric & Charity from the Springs to Omaha
• Getting together with Jami's high school pal Stacie
• Swimming at the Filipi pool
• Luke was stung by a wasp 3 times. (No worries ... he's okay!)
• Attending a patriotic concert in the park
• Full-family photo opp
• Christmas in July gift exchange
• Family whiffleball game in the park
• Lots of laughs and stories!

It's a high school reunion! Jami met with friend Stacie Tucker, who lives in Omaha. It was great to catch up on 7 years.

The Leahys really know how to run the railroad. Kids of all ages enjoyed playing trains!

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a swan-diving Scott! He shows off his diving board skills.

With swimming all wrapped up, Luke & Sawyer watch the many tricks of others on the diving board!












We enjoyed a patriotic evening in the park listening to a concert. Lil' sparkler Stratton with Juli and Jami on the blanket.
