Extended Family reunion on my Dad's side. My sister-in-law did an amazing job putting together a fun little song for the grandkids to sing for our talent. It was fun to see them all singing and to see them all together. It was neat to get to see and visit with my cousins, aunts, uncles that I hadn't seen for many years.
My immediate family reunion. We found a cabin that all of us could fit in quite nicely. We had a great time being together and making fun meals from all of our missions. In this picture we are having a math competition trying to complete a number of math worksheets that my mom had saved.
Roslyn got to spend time being held by many of her aunts and uncles and nieces.
One activity that I thought would be neat was to pair up an older cousin with a younger cousin and have them read that cousin a story. It worked out great and at least I thought it was a good activity. It was fun to see the bigger cousins sitting down with one of their younger cousins reading them a story.

This is the van we have had for 8-9 years. It was given to us by one of Michael's older brothers when they needed an 8 passenger van. It was a great van and has worked really well for us. It had 237,000 miles and finally gave up. It was going to cost more than it's worth to repair so we sold it for scrapes and got another van while we were in Utah.
After the reunion we spent some time at home with my Mom and Dad. A lot of the time (2 days really) I spent buying, selling, and fixing our van. Once done I wanted to do some fun things with our boys. We went and visited Liberty Park, played and rode on the rides. It was nice to enjoy the nice weather.
This is another one of the outfits I had as a baby.
Uncle Andrew always seems to find time for my boys. He took all of them on different activities while we were there and made sure to read to them.
ReeRay. I probably spelled that wrong but this boy always makes me smile. He seems to always be happy but has gone through so much. He is a refugee here that can't talk or hear but just a great guy.
Going to hear music and the spoken word and visiting temple square.
