#10- Farrar Family Reunion
This year we had the first ever Keith & Mary Farrar Family Reunion. Last year, my sisters were kind enough to nominate me (haha) to organize it. Of course- this was before I was expecting Grayson. So, organizing this and preparing for him was a lot of fun (plus other things I had to organize for).
Everyone made it except Eric and his family, and some of Merlin's kids. Hopefully next year EVERYONE will make it!
One of the best memories (besides Madison (Alicia's little girl) telling us how she is "Lovin on Michael (Jackson)") was when Mike and Ryder took the canoe out. There were AWFUL winds and yes- they swam it back. Here are some pictures of them emptying out the canoe and draining the items that were soaked/full of water.
#9- Sienna Visits
I love every year when we get to spend time with Mike's niece- Sienna! This year it was a little more low key then in the past. No roadtrips anywhere. Since I had left my job and stayed at home, we didn't have to worry about Mike and my mother-in-law Kathe getting days off so someone would be home to watch Sienna either.
Sienna was a great help to me with Grayson. I also enjoyed taking her out to the park, zoo and Discovery center (a museum/activity science center).
Sadly- I am not able to locate the memory card that has the 2-3 pictures of her visit here. I had actually taken SEVERAL pictures but my memory card was on the fritz and they ended up being "warped"
#8- Great Grandmas!
Grayson met both his Great Grandmas this summer.
Grayson met my Grandma Farrar at 2 months on the way home from his first roadtrip.
2-3 Weeks later he met Mike's Grandma Hayward when we were picking up Sienna. This picture was taken when we brought her back to Lewiston.

I feel blessed that we were able to take him to meet both his living Great Grandmas
I am sorry to say that Poppy- Mike's grandpa who raised him was not able to hold Grayson on this earth as he passed away in August. However, I am grateful for the knowledge that one day he will be able to be with Grayson.
