2008 COUSIN REUNION +

The host with the most.

Thanks Joel, all your work made this a wonderful,

memorable event.

Great people, wonderful food and a beautiful place.

To the far right is 'my new favorite' cousin and
the best story teller ever.

A great weekend of getting caught up, exchanging
ideas, information and just hanging out together.

Now this is a perfect picture of two beautiful women
in our lives.

Mark, doing what he does best, hanging out with
his beautiful daughter.

No doubt about it, Aunt Dorthy has the greatest son,

daughter-in-law and great granddaughter ever.

Someone say FOOD?

Yes, food, food and more food.

No one went away hungry.

We all got a special treat with Uncle Bob's visit.

And, best of all he had plenty of HUGS for us all.

Let me explain, yes I am your cousin.

A time for a little communing with nature at

Joel and Christina's Hidden Springs Ranch.

I love all the cousins, but one of my favorite moments

was spending time with our Dunitt.

He went here to spend his last days and has

been here 9 years. He is 33 and doing great.

Thsi place is so special and beautiful.

We had a special walk with nature and picnic day.

We enjoyed the breath taking scenery and

perfect weather.

Though he is also beautiful this guy was

an uninvited picnic guest. We left him

sun-bathing on his rock.

We took a fun excursion to a nearby fun place,

Bishop Castle.

It has been/is being built by one man.

We are not sure how structuraly sound

it is, but it is different and in its own way

beautiful....... well sort of!

The second and third generation cousins must

be thinking, 'what is up with these guys'.

Linda is asking Dianne, 'is there anything

this dumb in Kansas'?

And, Steve jumps in, 'nothing like this in Utah'.

Seriously, would you trust these 3 people

to go to the top of the castle with you?

Farewell, until the next cousin reunion. Stay safe.

Uncle Bob and Aunt Dorthy had us over to their

beautiful house in Colorado City. Dorthy played

her piano for us and uncle Bob gave us his

home made horseradish. Yummy!

Thank You
