My Family's Reunion by Joshua Lynn Sunday

I had fun at my mom’s family reunion.

They call it “The Corn Boil”.

We were waiting

for the kids who are related to me somehow

to get there so they could play with us.

I forgot most of their names.

Then, they came and I met new people

and it was fun.

We played kickball and soccer in the heat.

It was fun to play kickball but it was too hot.

The kids and I took a break

because we were sweating so much.

So we ate some yummy pizza mountain pies then we

played again.

It was a blast.

Then, we had the brilliant idea to play hide and seek

in the dark and it was super fun!

It was AWESOME to be a hider

because it was dark

so most normal

places could work 10x better.

But it was bad to be the seeker

because you couldn't find like ANYONE in the dark!

Also I got glowlights and made a hula hoop.

But then we went to bed, and when we woke up,

we played EVEN MORE!

And then we took MORE breaks, ate MORE food,

and got MORE sweaty.

It was a great time!

But in the end we all went home.

As we waved goodbye we got

Into our cars and drove away,

Thus ending our family reunion once
