Megan and Brooks ARE coming out for the reunion! Yay! They are driving and will have all their children with them, of course. They’ll be here almost 2 weeks, I think, driving straight through to get here, and then stopping at Randy/Grandpa Cripe’s home on the way back. Won’t that be just awesome?
I appreciate you all coming together to make this happen. They will not be going on their trip they had planned to Palmyra and Niagara Falls and New York City, but that’s what the kids wanted, and that’s what feels right to them. Me too. Heheh
They’ll get here about the time that Bonnie and Dennis do - they are staying at a motel, and Haroldsen’s and Ringers will stay here. Ringers are coming July 2nd through the 5th, and Bonnie and Dennis will leave on the afternoon of the 4th.
We have things planned, such as fishing, karaoke, games, food, the Rexburg Splash Park, the parade, fireworks, lots of family history reviewing and video taping, sharing our discs of geneology pictures, and of this reunion and the history we shared, and lots of things like that! (We’ll burn discs for those who want them, for those who can’t make it.)
We will be combining fun, food, patriotism, and family bonding and family history.
That will be such a wonderful thing.
So get your cameras and video cameras all charged up, get out your sunscreen, hats, sunglasses, fold-up seats, safety glasses for fireworks, your blankets, swimsuits, fishing poles and bait (if you want to do that – we’re totally open to what you want to do!), drinks, glow sticks (to locate kids), radios, guitars, etc., and join us!
We love you!

We are all SOOOO excited!!!
I was thinking, if the projector can travel okay we can bring it and have a big screen movie as part of the reunion! We used it last weekend and twice it went black and a red light showed up, but as soon as we restarted it then it worked fine. I hope it isn't trying to die on us!
I'll try to come up with other ideas of fun things to do too! Oh, I was thinking we could do photos (Haley says the field by them is beautiful). So, that might be fun too.
What good ideas, Megan! We should think of some good family or patriotic movies! And photos would be great!
Yayyyy! So so excited for the family to be together! It's so wonderful that Megan and Brooks and Co. get to come, that makes it so much more like a family reunion. This summer is looking to be the best one yet!
It all sounds so wonderful, Diane! Can't wait to see/meet everyone and celebrate one of my very favorite holidays with the family!! Love y'all. :D
