Reid Ranch

 We enjoyed going to Reid Ranch for our biennial Pearson Family Reunion!
 Peter, Ammon and Leia enjoyed exploring the outdoors, while Talmage's favorite activity was playing Risk and Mafia with all of his fun cousins.
 Leia and Jayne rode the ponies every day of the trip.  Their favorite pony was named Lady.
 Ammon enjoyed the pony ride also.  We thought it was a little odd that they were required to wear helmets and life jackets while riding the ponies, but we obeyed the rules anyway.
 Peter had a huge grin on his face the whole time he rode on his pony.
 Talmage was happy that he was able to take a longer horse ride with the adults.  He enjoyed riding on Blackie.
 Our family, and especially Spencer, loved competing in various sporting and gaming activities on this trip.  We played horseshoes, soccer, board games...
 Shuffleboard, clay pigeon shooting, card games...
 Foosball, volleyball, random family games, swimming in the pool...
 Talmage and Shaylee enjoyed archery.  Eric, Spencer and Ben found out that Rob Anderson is the best archer in the family.
 At the request of his Mom, Spencer wrote a short script of funny memories Joyce has of her parents.  All of the Rollins family participated in performing the cute, funny skits.  We enjoyed being silly, while becoming more familiar with our sweet Grandparents who have passed on.
 We had fun on paddle boats and canoes, and even fished a little.
 We were busy having so much fun, that Peter fell asleep at the dinner table more than once...not very comfortable sleeping arrangements, but he was clearly exhausted.
We loved partying with this crazy Rollins Family!
