We had a Bergeson family reunion last month! About 10 months ago, we reserved a house up at Bear Lake with quite a few bedrooms and bathrooms. I was nervous that we would have enough room but it worked out.
On a Wednesday afternoon we headed up to Garden City, Utah, which is right next to Bear Lake. We had dinner--taco soup courtesy of Garrett. Then we handed out our Bergeson Reunion t-shirts and took a group picture before any got dirty. We didn't have anyone to take the picture or a tripod so this is what we got:
Then we had FHE with songs, lesson, games and treats.
I told some stories about Grandma Emma who was my grandpa's grandma. She was the 5th wife of Jesse N. Smith and a very admirable person.
The next morning after breakfast burritos cooked by Everett and Caroline some of us participated in a yoga class, led by Susanna:
That was followed by an Undokai with the theme of candy, led by MiCayla and Lincoln:
Probably the winning team could tell you who won but I have forgotten!
After lunch of sandwiches and chips, etc. put on by Jan and Sallie, we headed to Bear Lake where we rented a couple of jet skis and enjoyed playing in the plentiful sand, as well as using David and Stephanie's kayaks. Some people came a little later after their children took naps. The weather was perfect--sunny and not too hot or cold.
The jet skis were definitely a highlight of the reunion for a lot of people.
For dinner we enjoyed fajitas cooked by David and Stephanie followed by buttermilk brownies. We played games that evening. We were supposed to do skits that night but everyone was too tired so we did that the next morning.
It was a fun day!
