Bingham Family Reunion 2012

Sporting their tie-dyed t-shirts

Macy looks like a boy!

We had lots of fun.  We went to the Raspberry Days Craft Fair, the North Beach, boating and more.

We also got to go to the baby blessing of sweet Cedar Jay Bingham.  Colby gave him such a beautiful blessing.

And they served these yummies at the luncheon!

There was lots of reunion crafting

Macy even got in on the craft action

Sand fight!

Beach Bums

This time the boat put Macy right to sleep

The ENTIRE FAMILY (except Breck) on the boat!  We picnicked on the boat, jumped in the water, tubed!

And we managed to squeeze in a raspberry shake. Yum!

July Jamboree 2012

We discovered chocolate covered frozen bananas and loved the refreshing treat!

So did Macy.

If you zoom in on this picture, Macy's face and hair is so priceless!

Macy loves Uncle Matt

The July Jamboree this year was different than most years.  We had Macy's birthday that day so we had lots going on and had lots of family in town.  We've always wanted our family to see how much fun it is, so it was good to have them there.  I was disappointed because Hermitas didn't have a food booth :( and I didn't discover the funnel cake stand until it was too late.  Oh well, next year!  Andy put the Soap Box cars in as well as his Packard and truck.  The soap box cars drew a lot of attention.  It was a fun day.

Macy's 2nd Birthday Party

FUN
We had sidewalk chalk, Macy's pool and slide, Pin a fin on Mermaid Macy game, a bucket of bubbles, and bouncy ball favors for each kid (which I sort of forgot to give to them as they left).

So glad 4 of Macy's cousins (Ally, Mylee, Natalee & Noah) got to come.  They were great helpers & made the party fun!

Macy is such a little dare devil - she had to keep up with the big kids

We have practiced blowing out the candles for months so we had to do it twice!
