Meagan's family time

Being with family is always so enjoyable. The help with Rhone is amazing and taking a break from cooking is nice too. Hopefully someday we will live much closer to our families. We were able to spend quite a bit of time with Brock and Olin since Brock's school was out for potato harvest. Here are a few highlights from the trip. One day my mom's family all got together. We ate lunch and made home made caramel apples. We also got together with a lot of my cousins on my Dad's side too, but for some reason I don't have any pictures of that. My parents took us out to eat at Tepanyaki Japanese Steak House. The boys were very entertained by the chef and we all loved the food. We also spent one evening at my brother's house where we all enjoyed a dip in the hot tub. My mom and I spent a day together with no kids. It was fun to just be together with no one else to worry about.

This is my grandparents on my mom's side and almost all their grandkids and their 2 great grandsons. We are quite the crew.

This is my mom and all 3 of her sisters hard at work.

Ben and Rhone helping Nana install the new TV. Everyone looks concerned about Rhone helping, except Rhone who seems like he knows what he's doing.

Dinner at the Tepanyaki. Enlarge the photo to see the look of awe on Rhone's face.

Rhone loves tractors, 4 wheelers and ANYTHING Papa is doing. Rhone was his little shadow.

We loved having you home. Just hope you can come more often, or move closer. The pictures are fun. Glad Ben is back home.

I know it's not fun when the guys leave but sometimes it's kind of fun to be able to take off and visit family when they're gone. I'm glad Ben got to go on this trip though!

We sure wish you guys could move closer. I'm so glad that you were able to spend lots of time with Brock and Olin. I look at the picture of the grand and great grand kids and think what a wonderful posterity Granny and Gramps have. We love you and miss you. Give Rhone loves for us.
