First Week in July & Sister's Retreat - July 7th & 8th, 2008

Cousins spent some fun time together upon our return to Northern Utah.


Drake had a great time in the big pool.


















Here is the "Line Up" of some of our grandchildren - Drake, Gavin, Talia, Marcus & Kira.







I thought this was a precious picture of Serena helping Talia find raspberries to eat.










Kasen, Marenda and Addie, watching the fireworks.

















Shanda had her birthday while here so we made her a chocolate cake. She also got to celebrate her birthday on our Sisters' Retreat.





It was a wonderful privilege for me to be able to meet with 5 of my 6 daughters and 1 of 2 daughters-in-law for our first - and I hope - not the last, Sisters' Retreat.











We first had a lovely meal at the BrazilianTucanos Restaurant.

Pictured are: Shanda, Trina, Kendra, Mom (Janice), Serena, Liz, & Marenda. Marenda had Kasen and Addie with her then Sam's parents took them for the night.




Trina has lovely friends who let us use their cabin up near Heber.


Here are two loving sisters - Shanda and Marenda.








We are having our evening meal - Serena, Marenda, Trina, Kendra and Shanda.











The next morning we had our breakfast on the deck.










Just before leaving for our homes, we took this picture -

Serena, Trina, Kendra with Tessa, Marenda and Shanda.


What a special time! We missed Kerali, Jenny and Liz.
