Family Reunion

Before my grandpa pasted away there was a Bierma family reunion planned for July 5 in Wheatfield where my aunt Joyce works. The place is amazing, paths leading everywhere to new treasures waiting to be found. Its interesting to view such a place through a child's eyes. Keagan is fasinated with water. We can be driving anywhere and he will always point out rivers, fountains, ponds and so forth to me. So we are walking around this lets call it an estate, and there is water everwhere, with lots of fish and in one area lots of frogs. Now most of you know that several months ago Keagan had a run in with a frog that scared him half to death! For those of you that haven't heard the story here is a condensed version. My mother in law has a pond in her backyard. She has several fish that Keagan loves to feed. There are also a couple of frogs that have taken up residence in the pond. SO one day Popper(Craig's dad) and Keagan are outside feeding the fish when Popper reaches down and picks up one of the frogs to show it to Keagan, the frog jumps out of Popper's hand, right at Keagan, whom is trying to get away and falling down at the same time. Keagan is now terrified that the frog is after him. Its very cute to watch him make his body shake the way he did that day. So now depending on the day, he might be afraid of the frogs or liking them. SO on this particular day he isn't so afraid of the frogs which is a good thing cause the one pond we came across had about 30 frogs in it. So anyway, here we are at this family reunion, with I have to admit, a bunch of people that I don't know. But we had fun anyway. Keagan spent about an hour jumping off the diving board to me. I think that he could have done this for hours but mommy couldn't have. My legs were kinda sore the next day, I am not in the best shape.
I am getting better, its probably a good thing, now every time we go swimming Keagan jumps in time after time and which is good exercise for my legs. I know he is only trying to help.
My mom has pictures of him jumping in, I will post as soon as I can download them to my computer.
