Bad news. Today our hard disk crashed. Awesome. All of my pictures...and documents...and programs....and everything else I haven't even thought of I can't access until we get the new one and get it installed. Ugh. And a mere 3 weeks after our warranty expired. Grrr. So don't expect any posts for a week or so and I'll try to check my email when Rob brings his laptop home from work, but during the day call me if you need me. Until then, wish us luck and have a great week.

Bunker Family Reunion

This was my lucky year to plan the Bunker Family Reunion (we're rotating amongst the siblings...ahem...boys too!). It actually worked out well to be able to do it before we moved across the country. My sweet sister Emily let us use her awesome party house for the fun day. It was so fun to see all my siblings and all the nieces and nephews and family who live in California, and even a few from other states!

So for the weekend we drove down to California (right as a snowstorm hit Utah!) to enjoy some fun in the sun with the fam.

Aww...little brother. Isn't he cute?

Sisters!
Emily, Becky, Marti and me

Brothers
John, Brian, Tyler and Rick

All the siblings
Brian, Becky, John, Emily, Amanda, Marti, Rick and Tyler (who apparently is too cool to stand too close to his family...) :)
Sweet posing ladies! Too bad we all didn't get the memo...

The whole kit and caboodle.
What a handsome family, no?

Water baby with her cousin Trevor.
Grace had a blast swimming with her awesome cousins.

Swimming with Daddy.
Here's a funny story about Grace. She refused to get out of the water all afternoon, she was having so much fun. We forced her to get out for dinner, but when dessert came we wouldn't bring it to her to let her eat it in the pool. So she would climb out of the pool when no one was looking and run over to the dessert table, grab a cookie, run back, eat it, jump in and do it again and again and again. Apparently cookies and swimming are some of her favorite things :)

Aren't my sisters beautiful?

Jessica, Becky and me

There was lots of playing in the pool and sweet jumps off the diving board. I think this is Ian, but I could be wrong?

Gracers and her Uncle Bri hanging in the pool and enjoying the California sunshine!

Thanks everyone for coming! It was so great to get to see everyone! Thanks especially to the Koberlings for working so hard to get your backyard looking awesome for the party! It was a blast!

I'm finally back. Thanks for being so patient with me. Can I tell you how good it is to feel like at least a semblance of my former non-pregnant self? Well, it does feel soooo good! Maybe now if you come visit you'll be able to enjoy a clean toilet. Maybe.

The past few weeks have been a whirlwind of fun family events that I was in charge of (yeah, that didn't really help the feeling-like-yourself situation). We drove to California for a Bunker Family Reunion. Then came back to Utah for a reunion on my mom's side when everyone came in town to participate in the Race for the Cure in honor of my mom. Both events were so much fun, I'll try to get them blogged soon. Here's a little sneak peak for now...
