The 2010 Banner Family Reunion was held in McCall, Idaho. It's always so much fun to get together and we had a great time! We had fun spending time together, ice skating, swimming in the lake, fishing, playing games, climbing trees, making crafts, telling and listening to stories, and singing camp songs. Our campsite was beautiful with majestic Ponderosa Pines all over the place. Those things are HUGE and amazing!
Our little family and Kev's parents stayed in a nearby condo, which was nice. Most of the others camped. I thought it was the best of both worlds; we got to enjoy the beautiful outdoors and all the fun camping things (campfires, hiking, etc.), but we ALSO got to enjoy a nice, soft, warm bed, a warm shower, electricity, a kitchen, and a toilet....yes, I'm a wuss. It was great though and it was definitely much easier with two small children.
Here are some pics from the reunion...
