Marvin Saunders Family Reunion 2011

The 23rd of July weekend found the Marvin Saunders Family Reunion in Star Valley. Connie and Jill's families went rafting on the Snake River on Friday afternoon. Then on Saturday Tam and Dan arrived with Angie & her children. There was lots of food and fun. Some girls below cooling off in the wading pool.
Gentry had to get her hair pretty for everyone.
Oh and did I say there was food? Sometimes it is worn as well as eaten.
Little girls love to play dress up and show off.
And more games.
What a wonderful family.
We had a great weekend. It was a special time of bonding and we should do it more often.

Grandma's Boy Party 2011 Day 5

Day 5 found us back shooting the BB guns. All those BB's and nothing to kill.
Jace decided driving the golf cart was more fun than shooting. They wore out the grass driving around.
Then back to the fish pond.
Carter was the sucessful one this time.
Then the last night until the Saunders Reunion starts tomorrow and the families come.
The boys had a great time in Star Valley with Grandma.

Grandma's Boy Party 2011 Day 4

Day 4 found us at the lake. We started out on the lake fishing.
Again, fishing is boring, catching is fun. We did some fishing, but no catching.
So if you can't catch, you might as well have fun. So we started on the tubes.
First Everet was on the tube.
Then Carter had a turn. Then Jace gave it a try.
Oh yah, lets have a snack.
What a great day at the lake!!!!

Grandma's Boy Party 2011 Day3

Day 3 began with some yard work. Jace really wanted a skidster instead of a shovel and wheel barrow. Then one of the highlights of the party, the horseback ride.
Maria was the wrangler/guide and the boys loved it.
They had so much fun that they wanted to do it again.
After the horseback ride, it was time for an afternoon at the pool. More fun again.
Another great day!!!!

Grandma's Boy Party 2011 Day 2

Day 2 started out with more fishing.
Then off to golf lessons. They had fun learning from Corey.
Practice on the driving range with Corey.
After the lesson then it is out on the course to play 9 holes.
Following the golf outing it is time for some serious craft work with Grandma. Amazing what you can do with play dough that Grandma makes.
Then it is snack time before the baseball game.
Don't you just love the "Nerdy" ball player look?
Oh yes, we did not catch any fish this morning, so back to the pond tonight. More succesful tonight.
Another busy day with Grandma.
