Monster University

Ethan got to see his first movie... Monster University!! Although he didn't watch all of it, he still enjoyed himself.  Funny show.  Sigh.  Miss seeing movies.





Home, Relaxing

For Father's Day we made my dad a car shirt so the grandkids could drive on his back.  They LOVED it and he LOVED it.   It was a win win situation.  Then we swam in the pool... it was just so spectacular!!!









Day 3: The Final Day....

The last day was sad.  Already my sister, Becka took off to go back home.  Sigh.  Her and I just didn't have enough time together.  Looks like next time needs to be LONGER and more focused on hanging out!!! We just played some more and then packed up and headed home.  It is always hard to say goodbye.  How I miss them already.!!!!














 Jadon was so good at taking care of all the young one.  So grateful for him



Day 2

Are you ready for another overload of pictures?  Here we go.  This has Yellowstone National Park, playin' together and another FHE.  What a fun filled day... oh it was a rainy day too.  Fun.  But rainy.  Nice.








 Gabby thought that anything that smoked was a dragon sleeping or waking up.  She wasn't feeling great that day, so she didn't smile much.  I just enjoyed taking pictures of Adam trying to get her to smile.... it didn't work.







 Can you see the buffalo? 
 Flying with Grandpa
 Waiting for Old Faithful... not so faithful anymore.  She was 15 min late.  It was a long time to wait with so many kids... and for us.




 Proof that Ethan is a Momma's Boy!! 


 Looking at the "dragon"  Gabby was so excited to see it go off.  "Oh mommy.  Mommy.  Look Dragon.  Wow."



 Playin' with Uncle Josh at the cabin.  They love their Uncle Josh
 FHE: it was based off of our family scripture theme for the reunion.  D&C 12:8;
"And no one can assist in this work except he shall be humble and full of love, having faith, hope and charity, being temperate in all things, whatsoever shall be entrusted to his care." So I did an obstacle course representing each quality one needs to have to assist in the work of the Lord.
HUMILITY:  different levels of humility but ultimately it leads to getting on your knees... or back :) 

 HOPE:  You had to blow a balloon out and letting out the air it needed to land on the stairs.  It was hilarious to watch.  Many clever ways to get a balloon to a spot.  

 FAITH:  You need to walk in faith,  being upright and obedient.




 CHARITY and LOVE:  You needed to carry your family from the stairs to the kitchen.



 Then we roasted marshmellows.  Oh yum

 Afterwards we played some minute to win it games.  FUN.
