We did the all time favorites of eating and visiting...
lots of ATV riding and playing on the swings...
Fire crackling is ALWAYS a blast in these little towns... I had never seen or heard of 1/2 the stuff that the boys (my little ones) were blowing up. Glenn had a real blast and reminisced of his childhood with us all! (Uncle Kevin is monitoring the activities in this photo.)
There are 13 counsins on the Stara Side of our family. Our 5 children are some of the youngest. There is ONE very favorite that the boys all enjoy... his name is Daniel! He fits right in the bunch! He is my older brothers' (Kevin) son.
The 13th Cousin was just added a few weeks ago - WELCOME MORGAN ANN! I sure enjoyed holding her and I have to say that there was no lloonnngggiiinnnggg to have one of my own that young again. BUT, I sure did have a great time holding her.
Jill (pictured above) is Kevin's oldest daughter. She is a Senior and loves running! She and her younger sister (Rachel - Sophomore) went running with me one of the mornings. I am happy to say that I could keep up with these young bucks!
The trip went well and we are glad to be back home - yet can't wait to return next year!

Looks like a LOT of fun! I didn't know you were from that small of a town!
Morgan Ann looks a lot like Emma did at that age!
As usual the Thomas' are having a great time. You looked pretty comfortable with that babe - are you sure there's no longing?
Cindy, I found your blog from LeAnn's and it was so great to see your family again. Looks like you are still as busy as ever and having fun! By the way, Bishop Neville was released and the Relief Society is putting together a scrapbook. do you want to contribute a page? Email me emandjimmy@cox.net -Emily Christensen
you tell your husband that HE is not invited to participate in the memior thing so his opinion is not important!!! HUH. and no, it doesn't have to be a complete sentence ... seriously, if you don't want to do it, you don't have to. I just liked chewing on it for a few months til I came up with something good!
oh, i get it now!!! the names ARE your memior!!! i'm a little slow ... sorry. love you!
I was out walking this morning and from a distance saw someone running towards me. For a brief moment I thought it might be you then remembered you don't live here anymore. It made me miss you. Hope there are others who are enjoying you like we did.
