We all had a fun time going to the annual Cardston Parade. AG and CG were both on floats in the parade as well as Shannon and Crystal were riding on their class reunion floats. The rest of the kids gathered lots of candy that was thrown out during the parade and so they all had a fun time . After the parade Shannon and Crystal and their families attended their class reunion picnics while Scott, Mandy and family joined Audrey, Rod and I for Chinese food at the restaurant. We usually go to my mother's place after the parade for my side of the family reunion. My mother felt like she just wasn't up to the large family gathering this year and so we had a free afternoon to do whatever we wanted to do. After the dinner at the restaurant Scott, Mandy and family came out to the ranch for the afternoon. When Crystal arrived she had a wonderful idea of filling the kids pool with water and the kids all went swimming. Later Shannon, Steve and family arrived and we built a fire and had a weiner roast. We had a great time visiting, eating and guad and motorbike riding. Lindsey and Mar arrived later on in the evening from Calgary to join in on the fun. I sure love the time that we enjoy as a family. We sure miss Derick, Megan and their family but realize that they are where they are suppose to be at this time.
Lindsey and Mar showed us their pictures of the West Coast Trail hike. They went hiking for nine days over some pretty rugged terrain carry their heavy packs with all their gear. I am very impressed with their perseverance and their sense of adventure in trying new hikes and seeing new places. Way to go girls!!!
We miss you guys too! I wish we could have come!
