Field by our reunion home. There is a moose eating grass in the shadows back by the trees.

Some of the grandchildren having a great time riding down the blowup waterslide that Kevin brought. This facility was absolutely GREAT!
We had a talent show on Monday evening for our FHE. Rex conducted. Vicky shared a story about our forefathers appearing to Pres. Wilford Woodruff in the St. George Temple asking him to do their temple work. Each family then had some talent to perform.
Lance tried to get Ethan to do the "Three Little Pigs Story"
Lisa's family had Rhet and Maci play the piano.
Ryan's family had Morgan play the piano, Makenzie and Makayla played a duet, and Garrett played the piano.
Romi's family had Abby and Paige play the piano and Sydney did some gymnastics.
Kali's family sang some songs and did the actions that go with the songs.
Kyle tried to get Eva and Leila to show where their eyes were. Eva stuck her finger into her nose and we all had a nice laugh.
Vicky stook on her head, not bad for a 65 year old grandma.
Great evening!
Each night we gathered for Family Prayer. What a choice blessing!
Eating lunch as we were traveling to the reunion together. We always enjoy eating together. The food for the reunion was wonderful. Each couple planned and prepared a breakfast and a dinner. We had a lunch at Big Jud's and at Craigo's on two different days.
We arrived at the reunion on Monday, June 28 about 3:00 p.m.
Tuesday we played around the home, had lunch at Big Jud's and did family pictures in the evening. This was the only night where we had rain. It was thundering and lightning so we had to rush the pictures. Some of the pictures didn't turn out due to the dark skies.
Wednesday we spent the day in Yellowstone Park.
Thursday we went boating on the Snake River.
Friday some attended the Rexburg Idaho Temple, some went golfing, some went to visit BYU Idaho, ate lunch at Criago's and went to the movie "Eclipse".
Saturday we played around the home and played games. Mormon Brigde, Sevens, ping pong, shuffleboard, tennis, volleyball, kickball, etc. were all favorites. Kevin planned a game of water balloon volleyball that was also a hit.
Sunday Herrins left, Kimballs left, and Lance and Diana left. We attended church and in the late evening drove out to see the Sand Dunes.
Monday we cleaned up and headed for home.
It was an absolutely fantastic reunion with all 37 of us present:
Rex and Vicky
Lance, Diana, Ethan and Parker
Lisa, Steve, Cole, Brock, Rhet, Maci, and Ty
Ryan, Heather, Morgan, Makenzie, Makayla, Garrett, Gage, and Madison
