I was so happy to see my family at the Ed Perriton family reunion (first ever!) Of course, I learned some things I'd do differently, and some things that I wouldn't change, but overall it was just so much fun to see everyone. I would say my favorite part would have to be watching the boys of the fam have a friendly competition at the batting cages. The best part was when some twelve year olds went in after them and hit all the balls they couldn't hit. Although I have to say, they were coming pretty fast.
I hit 1 out of 24.
But I'm confident I have other talents...like this AWESOME trifle I made (New Zealand inspired). First try turned out pretty good...I love praise, don't be shy....
These kids were so cute all together!!! Also, loud.
We reaaally missed Colette. I tried to get some other brunette in brown to stand in, but no go. Here's 3 out of 4 sistahs. Sondra and Trish...STOP smiling cuter than me.
I love this picture. Thanks for taking it, Rick! I can always count on my camera batteries dying at the worst time.
Kids are pretty easy to trick. Maci really thought she was driving the boat. I think she might have been.
Thanks for traveling really far and being the best family ever, (Perritons rule! Perritons rule!) I guess I'll see you guys somewhere tropical in a year or two? I'm already looking up plane tickets.

Summer you are hilarious! Thanks for your memory on my blog, that was great to get another good laugh remembering that camping trip.
So fun to hear about your family reunion. I think I learn something new to do different with every one of ours too.
Summer, your trifle DOES look amazing! I have to get the recipe from you! Seriously, will you post it on your blog??
Maci isn't a baby anymore either! She is growing into a beautiful little girl. I love hearing about all the cute little things she does!
You did such a wonderful job planning everything. That was a delicous and beautiful treat! We had so much fun and miss everyone so much.
Looks like fun! I love family reunions! Maci is so big now! That trifle looks divine too! Way to go Summer!
I love Family reunions! They are so fun-and its really fun to see your kids have fun. And the trifle really does look like a gourmet treat!
Like I told Collette, I am jealous. Our immediate family is still so small that I still want to be doing our huge family reunions :) Everyone looks so great. As well as your yummy dessert!
I meant I already told Suzette! :)
sum, looks like you guys had a blast, were you in cheytown? yeah that triffle looks so yummy wanna send me one?
What fun! Really I would eat that trifle anyday and I don't even know what a trifle is! Did you and Jared plan the reunion? Chad and I planned my family's as well- bummer we could've exchanged notes...not that you needed it, it looked like it was quite the success! Any trip to Fairfield soon? So we might stand a chance of seeing you?
looks like the family reunion went well, macie looks just like you. I'm glad you were able to see all of your family.
The Perritons pretty much do rule! You have a great family glad you had a fun reunion!
