Van Tassell Family Reunion

We attended the Van Tassell Family Reunion in Eden, UT following our Christmas celebrations.  There were SO many people there and there was so much fun to be had.

Matching reunion shirts and handmade hats by Grandma Tammy.
 We spent a lot of time each day outside in the snow.  There were snow clothes hanging on every possible surface to dry when we returned to the condo each time.  We just hoped that they would dry before we were ready to head out again.

Riding in the back of the truck to the BIG sledding hill.

I can't believe those little legs went up and down that hill so many times!

She is fearless!

Jake makes snowball fights WAY too much fun.

We had a few events where we could all meet in the same place.  We did a big pot luck dinner at the nearby LDS Church building.  We also took a family picture there.

Other days we visited various condos to see everyone.  We had a craft each day for the kids to do which brought people together and was a lot of fun.

The reunion was a wonderful success and it was so fun to get to meet and get to know extended family members better.

We are so glad you came out for Christmas. It was so much fun with you guys here. We loved watching all the cousins play together and meet more distant cousins. What a great big family we have. We are so blessed!
