Over the 4th of July weekend, we went to Bear Lake for a FAMILY REUNION!!!
It was so fun seeing all my cousins and aunts and uncles again! Well, almost all of them. Out of 70 people in the family, 6 couldn’t make it. We missed you Uncle Mike, Aunt Jana and family. And we missed you too Travis.

My bros.

The scenery.
Mandy was playing ‘tag’ with the tether ball.
We had a jewelry exchange…
and a tie exchange.
We went to the lake one of the days for about 2 hours. It was so busy, we ended up getting separated from everyone else. So our girls played together and found lots of shells!
Uncle Dirk and Aunt Heidi did a water fight with everyone who wanted to join in.
Skit night.
Poor Amanda got Heat Stroke from being out in the hot sun all day. She wasn’t doing very well that whole evening/night.
Horse shoes.
Our little family in our reunion shirts! “Stronger Together Forever”
Mandy perked up for a couple of hours the next day, but it didn’t last very long.
I photoshopped myself into this picture below.
The indian name my mom gave me was ‘Loving Dove’. I got to pick names for my children and husband.
Mandy is ‘Happy Gentle Brook’.
Eden is ‘Joyous Shining Stream’.
Ash is ‘Loving Courageous River’.
Paul is ‘Enduring Fox’.
Aunt Sandy showed everyone where people in our family have served missions. (The picture shows is about half way through.)
I love my family!
It was a great reunion!
Looks like you had loads of fun! What a great location and accommodations. It’s nice to see photos of everyone. Who is next to Jennifer? A boyfriend?!? Love your family photo – you look gorgeous. Remember…I need to look like that for my family photos.
Great pics except the one of me and my 27 chins..you could have photo shopped them off..Love you! We have a great family!
