This picture was taken on the morning of 12/18 in Provo as we got ready to leave Ganon and Heidi's house to go up to Jon and Cathy's house in West Valley. It snowed in the night leaving snow on our Hawaii plates (sigh), and making snowcones of our tennis balls.
Jon and his hard working wife Cathy were the hosts of the party.
We are very grateful to Major Arnie Hammari for taking some of his Christmas leave to drive down from Boise so Meg and the Little Women could attend the reunion.
Meg and some of the little ones enjoying the well planned brunch
We are also grateful to Eric for bringing his family down through the snow from Rigby. Macy Jane, on the left, continues to be a charmer. Becca, on the right, is always happy when she can be near Eric. He won her heart the first time they met (in 2000?) when their car got lost on the way to West Valley. While waiting for directions Eric bought her an icee, and that was that.
Little Rebecca and Lily eating brunch.
My camera didn't catch a fraction of the wonderful moments of the day. This random shot captures a few of the 23 grandchildren
I like this pensive shot of Sarah and her breakfast burrito
Mike and his Madrigal group gave us a private concert.
This soft focus shot of Kimie holding TJ is one of my favorite shots of the day. I saw Kimie often helping with the young ones.
This day will remain for Mom and me the most wonderful Christmas gift of 2010
