There was a Manning Children Vs Spouse volleyball match (no comment), and everyone went for a lovely hike in the state park. Owen was finally able to meet his closest cousin, West, and they spoke of many adventures to be had once we made it to California (I presume).
Sadly, Owen was sick for the entirety of the reunion, thanks to another cousin (who was sick from his cousin...and so the cycle continues). He was not his normal, bubbly self and slept terribly each night. We actually ended up propping him up in our queen bed one night, and we slept in sleeping bags in the living room. Whatever Sir Owen needs.
Consider the carpenter who carved an intricate dove into a ceiling joist of St. Peter's cathedral. When asked why he spent so much time sculpting a support beam no one would ever see, he answered simply, "God sees it."
