Dunnings Together Again!

Today was a super fun day! We met up with James & Abbie Dunning (Mark's practically twin brother - even the kids get them mixed up!) at Ririe Reservoir and went boating all day! We had so much fun, wakeboarding, tubing, and swimming... It was a sweet reunion. It had almost been 2 years since we've seen each other. We last visited them on Labor Day 2005 in Louisiana just before they moved to England (and lived there for a year). Hannah was 6 weeks old when we saw her last! She is turning 2 the end of this month!! I was so happy to see them, I cried. They live in Montgumery, Alabama now and we are already planning several trips to see each other this year... We can't go that long ever again!! I love my family so very much, they are so dear to me and I hate living so far apart.... Here are some great pix from the day, enjoy!

Emily & I on the tube! This was just before we got dumped out on a tight corner!

Abbie & Hannah (oh, and baby Victoria! Due late this summer...)

Ok Sister Dunning I'm so jealous of you! Tubing and wakeboarding are my favorite! (Tubing is by far the best though-we should go sometime together...I'd kick you off your tube.haha.) I've been waiting for months to go out on my boat and do that fun stuff! I can see that you guys are having so much fun and I hope you continue to have tons more fun. keep up the blog while you're gone. You're awesome! P.S. You look really funny on the tube, a good funny.

What great pictures. We always went to the lake every year with all of my cousins and it was my favorite...such a fun tradition to start...makes me want to go tubing, especially in this heat wave.

Ooooh Fun! We are leaving on Thursday to go boating for the weekend. I am glad to see that you are having so much fun on your vacation. Nolan misses his buddy Rowan. The other day when he was playing out front he went to your gate and pointed to your house and said "Row" we had to tell him Rowan wasn't home to play...so cute! Can't wait til your back!!!
