Wow – there has been a lot of family love going on this month! Today we attended our third reunion for the third weekend in a row…we are grateful for family and know it is important. It is nice to be a part of families who enjoy spending time together
Enjoy the pictures of our highlights. Here is a list of explanations:
1. Stephen and Jodi road their bikes from mesa falls to the cabin (39 miles!) while Paul chauffeured the rest of the bunch.
2. Mason, Lex, and Lily had a blast catching frogs and getting wet in the creek.
3. Spent the night in the cabin on the hill in honor of Bruce and Sharon – our kids had a blast!
4. After Stephen and Mason road their bikes down from the cabin on the hill we flipped pancakes for the family at the big cabin.
5. Stephen jumped over the camp fire with his mountain bike to wow the crowd.
6. Participated in the Parker Gladiators (course made up by Paul)!
7. Ate our first Mexi-cones made by Aunt Susan and family, very tasty!
8. Watched as the men folk fell some dead quaking aspens and cut up some firewood.
9. Stephen and Ryon rode bikes from the cabin to Ashton in the wind (40 miles!).
10. Ate a delicious ice cream cone from Daves IGA with Rick, Stacie, Jana, Ryon, and families and Paul.
Now we are going to have to set aside some time on Monday to clean the dirt rings around the bath tub! We had fun and got real dirty, but clean up well!
Memories were made for one and all.

It sure looks nice and green, and good times and good food. We loved the blog. It did make us a l
ittle home-sick for the cabin, but we are always a little home-sick anyway. We love you all!

Looks like a blast. Lots of wonderful Parker’s everywhere. We wish we could have been there. I saw Dennis’ video of Stephen jumping the fire. I liked the wipe out. (if you aren’t wrecking you aren’t learning) We are coming up next weekend. See you then.

Good times…We need to have a rematch of gladiators when John’s family is up. Let the best man or woman win!

Jenni said she thought we had the coolest family! We do alot of fun things and get along great! Just a little compliment to pass on to my wonderful brothers and sisters and in-laws who are really good sports! And to great parents who never let us have a dull moment! Thanks! I have to say Stephen’s stunt scared me a bit but way to go Steve! We’ll have to keep working on Quinn’s landing!
