The Francis Folks


We went to the Francis family reunion this summer and let me tell you what, the Francis' know how to reunionize! We all gathered at the most fabulous cabin I've ever seen, but then again I haven't been to a lot of cabins in my life, so this was a treat for me. This place was tucked away from the main road and far enough away from anywhere so you could be as loud as you want, as late as you want.

We ate outside until we were rained out. Then we all went inside and those who wanted to, did some entertaining; jokes, stories, dancing, singing.


Some of us took it outside when the rain stopped.
Mmmmmm.... S'mores by the campfire.

We hadn't intended on staying the night, so we didn't bring any overnight supplies, but we stayed so late, and everyone talked us into staying so we could help eat all the breakfast in the morning, so we decided to just sleep in the car because we were worried Westin would wake everyone up too early. Yes, we slept in the car like we were homeless or something. It was ok, other than Skyler only got 2 hours of sleep. Turns out Westin slept like a log all night.

Here we are in the morning

There was a zipline going across the pond. We didn't do it becauseif you weigh more than 90 lbs. you'll skim (if not more) the water on your way to the end. It was fun to watch the younger ones do it though.

Skyler helped watch the end of the line
