Aug. 4- 7 we had a Bleazard family reunion at my parents house. It was for the children and posterity of my grandparents Mary and Grant. They have 8 children, who have 44 children, who have over 80 children! At the reunion, there were 150 people!!! We all know each other very well and it feels like a small, close knit family, not a big awkward gathering.
The day before the reunion we went boating with some of the family that had gotten here early.
Prepping for the fun...

- Zip line over a canyon

The day after the reunion, anybody still here came boating. Even Grandma got to come on the "yacht". That was fun for her since she hasn't been boating in years.
Please ignore my disgusting t-shirt tan line... I guess I fit right in with the rest of the farmers out here.
