We had our Danielson Family Reunion this summer in Memphis, TN and also in Arkansas. It was so much fun. The kids all had fun getting together with all the cousins. We left a couple of days before the reunion to get out to Memphis so we could visit before the reunion. The reuion started Friday night. Saturday we had a day at the Temple in Memphis. All the kids that were able went and did baptisms and all the adults were able to go as well. It was such as wonderful day. That night we were going to go to the YMCA to go swimming but a summer thunderstorm came through and made it were we couldn't go swimming. So we ate and then went back to the hotel. Sunday we went to church and the whole family sang durring sacrament meeting. It was very good. Maddox got a fever on Sunday and was pretty much out the rest of the day. We ended the day with a family testimony meeting which was really nice.

Monday we went to Arkansas for a few days. On the first day we played water relay games(which was really nice as it was 100 degrees) that Kristen and Jeff put together. We did crafts with the kids. Each age level of the kids did a different craft. The youngest made peanut butter play dough. The next group colored hats. The older boys had to do make a tower of spaghetti noodles and tape then balance a marshmellow on the top. And the Older girls made bandana bags. We also went swimming for a little bit and ended the night with a family talent show.
Tuesday we went on kayaks and paddle boats. The kids all thought that was pretty fun. We then spent the rest of the afternoon at the lake swim area. That night we played a game that Joe and Melanie had brought for us to play. We then packed the car to get ready for our long 14 hour ride home the next day.
