Labor Day weekend 2011 the Thomas brothers and sisters and cousins had our 4th annual reunion at the Nielson's Bluewater Ranch in New Mexico. One of the favorite evening activities is "skits in a bag". We divide the children and adults into groups and give each group a bag with 10 random items in it, along with a theme. They have 25 minutes to come up with a skit......Always fun!
Lilly and Carol kept us laughing.
We loved eating out of the garden, and had a wonderful feast of corn that the Herrings brought with them from St. Johns. (60 ears in one delicious meal!)
The weather was great for the reunion. The kids and adults loved to be out in the open spaces where the sky is big, and we have plenty of that at the ranch.
It is obvious that they like to ride the quads to the highest overlook too.
The chimney of an old homestead house near prop canyon is a favorite marker, a few miles from the house.
Saxon and his friend Luke took on the challenge of solving the extremely difficult....Tavern Puzzels. Luke takes a break and practices his EMT skills on Major.

The cousins ---- ready to go on a pottery hunt. They were not disappointed and came back with some treasured shards.
Farewell until next year! We loved seeing you all and enjoyed our time together.

Looks like sooo much fun. Sad to say, I don't know most of those people. I'd like to know which cousins belong to which parents. Fun family reunion post!
