A Family Reunion!

After leaving St George we drove up to Midvale to stay with Shawn and attend a family reunion on July 4th. Cory and his family drove up the day before and Christy flew up so we had quite a crowd at Shawn's place! Kim (Shawn's fiance) was so nice and invited anyone who wanted to stay at her home so Christy opted to sleep at Kim's place and enjoy the quiet!

The 4th began with us going to Provo and picking up Christy's friend Paul who flew down to visit his sisters going to the Y. We then drove up Provo canyon to Timp lodge for the Floyd and Fanny Patten reunion. It was very nice. Cousin Doug did a wonderful job putting it all together. There was pizza to eat which the kids loved and....we all witnessed something incredible...Mike ate pizza! He has actually eaten pizza at least one other time in his life...he hates cheese!...but we had never witnessed Mike eatting anything with cheese so it was a first for us!!

I don't have a picture of Mike eatting the pizza...I think Shawn has one though. I will have to get a hold of it and post it for anyone who doesn't believe!!

Here is Paul, Christy, Jimmy, Cory and Ethan enjoying the food.

After a lot of eatting and some visiting we walked around the beautiful surroundings and decided to try and get a group picture.

Stacy in one of her recent blogs was saying how hard it was to get 3 children to be looking the same way for a group photo...
Well...try getting this group to all look good...

Better...

I think this is the best we can do!
