The Bitsilly Family Reunion, 2009
camping in the desert. the family fun run. a toad in the tent. uncle drew. an intense downpour. the smell of the desert after the rain. exploring the mud. grandma. squirt guns. photos at window rock. blue ribbons and a dollar. driving the quads. bubbles. fireworks. s'mores. barrel races. the limbo. musical chairs. shawl dancing. lots of dancing. mutton stew. fry bread. playing with cousins. braiding seneca's hair so she looks like the native that she is. naps in the hogan. new jewelry. the flea market. pin the tail on the donkey. hula-hooping. shooting hoops. playing catch. digging in the dirt. meeting new extended family. priesthood blessings. the raffle. loving every minute.

that looks like a kids dream vacation. what fun to have such a rich heritage.
Oh! Croslands and I were thinking the exact same thoughts (and I haven't even met her!).
What a blast. I love the picture of little Senny shooting herself with the squirt gun. What fun.
Mutton stew? I can't say I've ever tried that. Is it weird that I've missed you? Not that we even "talk"...but I've missed sneaking a peak into your life. Welcome Back!
