Heath Reuion

We went to Park City, UT for a family reunion. Here is 3 of the 5 siblings

We went to Olympic park the zip line and alpine slide were on a rain delay so we messed around in the museum and watched ski jumpers jump into a pool, which was very enetertaining..

through this simulation i realized some day I need to ski for real

Heath is a natural

 Then the rides opened we rode the zip line it was very fun. We got in line for the alpine slide. A slight sprinkle, we waited in line and then my sister wouldn’t claim me as family. My sister’s kids went down the slide and then Cheri (my sister) was the last one down before they closed the ride due to the rain. Then the radio asked the slide attendant: Did you send down any empty sled? He answered back: no, who was the last person you saw? Radio: Some M&M’s.

At first I thought maybe Cheri just hit the brakes and got out. Apparently when the slide is wet the brakes don’t work, Cheri was thrown from the sled and ended up breaking her finger and having some joints in her hand dislocated. I felt bad, but lucky it was just her hand. I was teasing her that was punishment for not claiming me as her sister ;)

Brant & the kids did get to swim in the pool in the afternoon when the weather was better.

Heath is getting to be a pretty good little swimmer. Rianne is a flipping fish, tried to catch her tricks.

We didn’t get to visit with everyone as much as we had hoped but I suppose there is never enough time. we sure do have a good time together, my dad says you can pick your nose and you can pick your friends but don't pick your friends nose... what about this

 Chad totally picked me for a sister
 I’m so glad Nancy and Larry were able to make it.

These two are amazing and have been very influential in my life. Here is a group of us at breakfast the last day

Now everyone in my immediate family (except Salina, she was at girls camp) has met Bennett. Chad enjoyed growling at him and teasing him.

Natalie is also one of the family, she is related to Larry & Jeff who married in so we figure she counts. I was SO glad she came, I always feel so selfish but I just have to see her and she gave me just the advice I needed. I need a balance of gratitude and hope… just to feel more contentment.

I’ll be working on it. Thanks for taking our pictures too!

My niece is expecting in December so I’m glad Bennett will have a buddy a year younger just like Ria and Heath do. Thanks for making the trip over, sure do love you Murf. So fun watching grandpa with the grandkids,

when we first got there he was right there asking to hold Benny.  Yes Joseph we consider the reunion trip a success.

We got back in time for little man to be 6 months old I can’t believe it, He is sitting up and is a true stripling warrior (momma’s boy) I love this age.
