Evening camp fire pictures.









Boston getting out of his chair.








Our first injury. Andrew came running down the hill and fell. Very sad.



When Andrew saw the picture he said, "Gam, why do you want to take a picture of my blood!



Delicious dinner and clean up

Don't we love Annie's hat?!







Lynda Ann and Mindy were in charge of the dinner the first night. We had tinfoil dinners that were absolutely delicious. I can't remember the last time I had one. They were loaded with chicken, peppers, onions, carrots and potatoes. DELICIOUS!

For dessert we had banana boats that were prepared in the banana peel with cake mix, marshmallows, chunks of banana and chocolate. Then warmed over the coals. They also had gutted oranges filled with gingerbread and orange pieces, wrapped in tinfoil and cooked over the hot coals. It was a wonderful dinner. Thank you Annie and Mindy.

Some favorite camera moments

Tucker's shirt! Loved it!
Picture of Jamie and Greg taking a picture of me taking a picture of Jamie and Greg!


Pa teaching Brock and Andrew the proper and safe way to cut wood. I would note here that Pa actually cut his knuckle with the axe while showing Brock and Andrew the safe way to cut wood!


This is a picture of someone (I can't remember who - I think it was Maren - throwing grapes to see if Jeff could catch them in his mouth. Tucker tried to capture the grapes before Jeff. I don't think either one of them succeeded.


Hanging out and enjoying each other.

Horseshoes

Lynda Ann loves horseshoes. So every year she requests that Les set up the horseshoes and she and I challenge Les and his partner (that changes from year to year) to a game. This year Annie and I won with a ringer giving us the three points we needed to win the game!

This is a picture of Jeff and Neal after golfing 18 holes at the Wasatch Golf Course. I'm sure the golfed their best game ever!







4th of July Dinner - Delicious!

I had to take this picture of Hayley at the table with Becky and Kaden. She talked non stop for the whole time she was eating her lunch. Becky and Kaden did their best to listen and act interested. It was fun to watch and see the animation that goes along with a Hayley conversation. She not only uses her hands and arms but her facial expression along with her voice tone is incredible. All of Lynda Ann's kids are so quiet and along came Hayley. We love you Hayley, you keep right on talking!

Our dinner consisted of hamburgers, hot dogs, potato salad, fruit and vegetables and all the accessories that go with a back-yard dinner.
