Courtney and boys in Idaho

FHE  .   Grandpa gave a great lesson and then....

...we ate creamies on the porch.

Enjoying the beautiful lawn and grounds around the Logan Temple.

..a bike race.  
The route went right by our house.  So we ate breakfast on the porch and watched .

Marco was happy most of the time no matter what we were doing.

Grilling hot dogs.

Lava Hot Springs   It took the boys a while to get comfortable with all the people and possibilities.  They ended up having a great time.

Bluth Reunion 2012

The first evening at the Bluth Reunion.  We gathered in the end of the Cafeteria so we could all see the TV with the Jepordy game and the family video.

Aunt Cindy ran the computer and Dacy, Cory, Aubrey, Vince and Dustin were the contestants.  All questions were about "growing up Bluth". 

Attempting to make the family picture as painless as possible.  Bracken is waiting patiently on one of the plasma cars, which really helped. 

Saying goodbye and almost ready to leave.

The eight new children added since the last reunion.  Yes, AJ and Bethany added two !
Babies are L to R-  Xoey, Brynlan & Brea, Sydney, Marco, Zane, Oscar and Miles.

Grandpa and Grandma  are doing well and Grandpa, especially is doing great.  They are at the Ranch in NM for the time being.  Life is hard at the house in Mexico because so many things  need fixed and they are too old to do it themselves anymore. 

Nathan and his good friend Max.
