Duckwitz Family Reunion

Oh if I could sum up the Duckwitz Family Reunion in two words it would be, Fun Chaos! We had a lot of people and kids and it was crazy but we had a great time together. The main purpose we went up there to get some chores done on the cabin, which we did, and of course I didn't get any pics of that, and the other was to have our whole family together which really hasn't happened for a very long time. It felt like we needed 2 Saturday's in a row, one to get all the chores done and the other to goof around. But we did get a little bit of both.

Of course what would a cabin trip be like without lots and lots of 4-wheeler rides! We did have a really big scare. Nathan was learning how to drive the 4-wheeler and rolled it! Tammy was on the back and Heidi too, Heidi had strapped herself in so she actually got stuck with the 4-wheeler on top of her. She was complaining about neck pain and wrist pain. After a trip to the ER we were lucky that she had a sprained wrist and some cuts, but that was it! But it was pretty scary for all of us.


Me and my sis-in-law Melissa, I took her out and taught her how to drive the 4-wheeler :)


There was no shortage on little boys this trip which is a nice change for us since most of our neighborhood is girls (we love them and all but some times you need some boy time). There was also plenty of dirty, rocks, bugs, and lizards to chase around. Caleb actually caught a couple.


And we did eat, and eat, and eat! It was always a big production no matter what we were having because there were so many of us.


Lots of helpers in the kitchen helped keep the Mommy Duckwitz sane.


After the many hours of playing in the dirt the little ones were beyond dirty! So we piled them into the bath tub together- It took 3 tub fulls to get all of them in and out and clean. Our they adorable.


All in all, very fun and crazy- love this family of ours.
