Robertson Family Reunion


It's Family Reunion time! This was our first ever Robertson Family Reunion with all of my siblings being married. We spent a couple of days in Las Vegas at a great little resort "Cancun" that didn't feel at all like Las Vegas. It was really refreshing! They had a great pool and nice rooms with kitchenettes. We went shopping, ate at PF Changs and Maggianos.Yum!

Then we headed up to Pine Valley for a few days in our friends' cabin. It was so beautiful there. Lots of green trees and fields and so quiet. You could sit outside and listen to the breeze rustling the leaves. The nights actually got chilly and the stars were so beautiful. 

One morning we took a hike along the newly paved riverwalk trail. It winds along the stream that feeds from the reservoir. It was so fun to go together and enjoy the beauty around us. The boys were great little hikers too!

Eventually their legs got a little tired.

Here we all are at the reservoir. 

 

Benson really has a special affinity for Becky. He was so excited when he heard she was coming. I really think it has a lot to do with the time Becky spent with him when he was first born. She came for a month when Benson was a newborn and cared for him a lot while I was recuperating. Though he was tiny, I think he got to know her then and has always really loved her for that early bond they shared.

Afterward we all sat down for a nice drink together. Angie and Baby Mark also went on the hike which was really impressive! They both did great but Little Mark was very hungry afterward so they were feeding him while the rest of us were chillin' post-hike.
