Family Reunion #1- Edmonton 2014

Everything has it's first.  In this case, this was our first attempt at a family reunion.  
We took all five families (9 adults and 10 children) to the West Edmonton Mall for three days of family fun.  It was a perfect location because school was not out yet for the area giving us unlimited access to the mall and all it's activities.

Fun at Galaxy land.
Austin and Joshy getting their engines revving on the roadway.

Soaring high with Lexi and Lei.


Daddy and Aunt J on the roller coaster.

Uncle D had to sit in the front due to his height.


The double loop-d-loop.

Addi and Britlynn on one of their favorite rides, the swing boat.




Aunt Nics makes Moose faces at Addi on the hot air balloon Ferris wheel.




Addi in the chopper.

Lei on the pony.

The girls buckle up and get ready to soar! Funny how they always select the purple plane.  It is awesome to go to an amusement park where the kids get their pick of any seat on the ride!

Addi and Britlynn getting ready to go in the roller coaster that spins while you coast.

Last look before they go with Aunt J.

Lexi and Lei in the chopper.

Then off to the bumper cars!




And again on the plane!

Addi and Grandma on the swings, with Aunt J and Lexi right behind them.

The girls on the Black Dragon roller coaster.

Doing a little whack-a-mole.

Back in the chopper.



Tea cups for two?

On the Dragon Coaster again, these two little four year olds love the thrill of a coaster!

Speaking of coasters, the spinning coaster was a favorite for all the adults, Addi and LEXI too!  You can't see them but Mommy and Lexi are sitting across from Addi and Aunt J.  Lexi just barley made the height requirement for this ride.  Mommy was not sure about allowing a four year old on such a big ride, but Lexi loved it and went on it over a dozen times.

Carousel ride for this little cowboy.  
Each time he would pass grandma and grandpa he would wave and say "Yee Haw!".


As if the amusement park was not enough excitement, off to the Aquatic park!
Slides, Kiddie Park and Wave Pool, could they possible fit anything else into to this monstrous indoor aquatic adventure?

Daddy looking at the purple loop-d-loop water slide.  
Should we do it?
Oh YES!
Daddy, Mommy, Aunt J, Uncle J, and Uncle D all took on this exhilarating slide.

10 kids (ages 9 and younger) splashing and having fun.

Wave pool.

Ausi splashing and figuring out how water flows.

Needing some R&R, Lexi and Lei cuddle in a blanket.


Ausi and cousin Josh both snooze away.


Mini Golf?  Sure, especially if it is black light mini golf!

Addi proves to be the only kid in our group to understand the golf concept. (helps that she is oldest in this golf group)




An evening stroll by the river seemed like that perfect way to end all the family fun in Edmonton.




Successful family reunion weekend.  Time to plan next year's venue...
