Turpin Times!



a bunch of the cousins on the tube.  My Avery what big feet you have! (aka Brian's feet)
We went to the Turpin Family Reunion a couple of weeks ago in Idaho.  It sure was a blast!  We all stayed in a big lodge and had some fun time on the water and at the lodge.  We floated down a river on tubes and rafts a couple of times.  Avery even got brave enough to ride a tube down it (or mom got brave enough to let him).  We went out on the motorboat as well.  Candace put together a fun capture the flag game with marshmallow ammo that sure took us for a hike!
Aunt Candace, Lily, Eve, & Boyce
Brian's brother, Mark and his wife Sarah and their kids Eve & Boyce were able to join us from Florida for the whole week and the reunion!  It was so much fun to hang out with them.  Lily & Eve got along quite well, and Avery & Boyce went on enough dirt bike rides to last them a year!

 At the reunion we had a fun game of "Minute to Win it"  Everyone got involved!  Some of the challenges were pretty tough, but still tons of fun.
