Gird up your loins - Reunion Tidbits

I wish I could be clever and creative here, but I am sorely lacking in that department. In fact, when Trevor asked if I had read his "Open Defiance" blog and had read Nick's comment. And wasn't it a really funny comment? I asked him about my comment, and he said that I was there for moral support. How lame is that.......... Anyway, your Dad and I put on a great reunion. It went off without a hitch and everyone participated. We picked up my Mom and Dad in Honeyville on the way. We found a place to put all their stuff in my truck and the wheelchair we piled on top. Dad was in his jeep. We had people guess how many hot tamales, starbursts, dum dums, taffy, Sees candies and laffy taffy. Then we had pictures of Utah towns taped on the walls and they had to guess them. We also had a table where we had put colored T-shirts for the kids to decorate - 25 of them. That night, we had a "Honor Mom and Dad" night where all the families did a little remembrance for them. After a dessert of bannana splits with 14 different kinds of ice cream, we played Nicholas Family Bingo. We used gourmet jelly beans for the markers. That was a hit. The prizes were Zions Bank stuff and drug rep stuff that we had been collecting. Fun!!! We slept in the corner of the lodge with Mom and Dad and Nancy and Chaetun and Xadun. I am glad it was only one nignt. After breakfast we had field manuevers with my sisiters as captains. Each team had to perform 10 skills. Dart blowing, paper airplane toss, jump rope, croquet racae, Sudoku, Crossword puzzle, jigsaw puzzle, frisbee throw thru hula hoop, jacks, and twinkie eating. It was hilarious. It was my job to check their mouths to make sure they had swallowed. ICK. It was a lot of fun. I am sure you would have been there if you could. At least I am hopeful you would.
