50th Anniversary Party

Victor's parents had their 50th anniversary and wanted a party so I told them I'd be in charge and surprised them with every detail!

I helped design the cake and mom used her talents to carry out my vision!

 On the invitation I asked everyone to dress in black, white, & gold.  Much to my surprise, everyone happily complied! It made it really fun!

 After Dinner, Alex gave a speech and then we had a talent show.  Every family had to do something. Our family danced to the Trolls song "I got this Feeling".  It was a lot of fun to see everyone's talents!

Yellowstone with Cairns

We've been trying to talk our old friends, Johnny & Elizabeth Cairns from England, into coming over for a visit for 10 years and it finally happened!  We did the upper loop one day, played on the jetskis a day, and then did the lower loop on our final day.  It's so wonderful to have good friends that we can pick up where we left off 10 years ago!

 This is my favorite area of Yellowstone, it's so pretty and unique!

 Mammoth Hot Springs Area

 Day 3: Lower Loop

 Old Faithful

 Our English friends were dying to see a buffalo and sadly, these deer and this scraggly coyote are all we saw!  That is my first time in Yellowstone that we didn't spot a Buffalo!

Sutherland Reunion

The Sutherlands had a family reunion near Preston, Idaho.  It was a hidden little paradise!  We had so much fun playing games and doing stations for the kids.

 We were each in charge of a station for the kid games and I chose yoga poses.  It was a fun game that made the cousins work & interact together.  I'd love to do it again!
