I can not tell a lie, I love me a reunion. The Bake family all met at High Cliffs in Oregon for one heck of a reunion. The theme was Olympics. We ate and chatted and waterslided, and chatted and volleyballed and baked in the sun and chatted. It was great. Millie was wonderful thanks to a mop bucket filled with water (the girl spent hours in the thing), the temperature was a balmy 106F, I barely even saw the boys , what with the waterslide, cousins, swings, and nature, and the Bake family was divine. I love all of my in-laws. What a great way to spend the 4th.

You're Awesome! It was so much fun to relive our happy memories of the summer. Thanks for sharing your pictures and memories.
I didn't know all I had to do was hire a bucket filled with water for the summer for Jace. That looked like so much hot fun. Are you going to play volleyball with our ward? 6 p.m. Thursday the 18th. Bring those mad skills.
Such Fun! Your boys looked like they were in heaven. Little Millie, she is too cute and I loved the bucket thing. We are looking forward to "Bake reunion 2009". Bring on the volleyball GAME ON!
I was so sad to miss it this year, I really wanted to go jump in the lake like we did last year! That's hillarious about Millie and her mop bucket. It's funny how you spend money on cool toys, and they end up liking something as simple as a mop bucket better!

PS: Millie is so funny about her bucket. :)
What a fun reunion. I laughed at the pics of Millie in the bucket. Now why do we spend money on expensive toys?
