We recently ventured to the border between Idaho and Washington for the annual McCrery family reunion. Clarkston is as swingin' as ever! (The traffic lights turn off at night because nobody is out and about).
We had a GREAT time! Though next year, we will probably try to stay longer than just one night!
After such a long drive, Wyatt was THRILLED to get to play with cousin Hailey (who was my good Wyatt helper the whole time)!
Lizzie tells a whopper to Bill and Aunt Shirley (our lovely hostess)!
The annual game of Texas Hold 'Em is underway. Three tables of players, one winner. As you can see, it's a high pressure game. Aunt Sharon (at the head of the table) was last year's winner - and she was not afraid to admit that this was to be a "game of revenge!".
Lizzie makes sure everyone knows what's at stake by flaunting the coveted Texas Hold 'Em trophy.
Bill is a bit delirous from the pressure - he wildly protects his winnings while downing can after can of caffiene free rootbeer. It warn't pretty.
The youngers busied themselves by setting up obstacle courses for each other to conquer. As you can see, they are all VERY tough.
Aunt Sharon gave everyone a haircut.
Aunt Maime had a special bond with Wyatt. He LOVED her! She sat down on the floor to play with him once, and after a moment, she dismissed me, saying "Stephanie, you can go outside, now." Obviously, the kid was to have no distractions during Aunt Maime time!
Bill points out the tiny monkeys to Wyatt (who liked watching the people as much as the animals).
Cute Ali sister, leading our crazy bunch.
Steve adjusts his distinguished army beret - He had come straight from training. He got free admission in those duds, and they don't even offer a military discount! 
Ali makes friends with a bear.
Dad and Wyatt check out the tortoise that was as big as a tuff-shed. 
At the bird show - SO FUN! There were tiny and giant birds flying RIGHT over our heads the entire show! A falcon nearly took Bill's head off!
