The Wilson Family Reunion

We’ve been home a week and I thought I should finally write about our fun family trip. We had a great time visiting my parents and sisters and their families. I drove the kids out a few days early. My parents are almost done with their remodel, so Alex got to watch a lot of construction work. As the concrete patio was being poured, he told my mom, “Let’s mess it up!” She didn’t let him. We had some real fun going to Lake Tahoe. Alex took an inner tube ride on a friend’s boat. He loved it! We went through about half of our sunscreen, but not one of us got sunburned. We also went swimming at a friend’s pool and played lots and lots of games. In true Salazar tradition, Naomi got her first tooth on the trip. Alex also got his first tooth on a trip to Reno. Ben drove back with us and we got see his sister before she entered the MTC in Provo. By the time we got home, we were all sick of fast food. As we passed a McDonald’s a few miles from our house, Alex said, “I hate McDonald’s!” Ben responded, “Good!” Overall, we had a great time and I discovered that 16 hour road trips aren’t that bad. We may even do one again next year.
