Amree's First Haircut


I finally cut Amree's hair for the first time on July 21st.  We didn't cut much, just trimmed the ends.

There isn't a significant reason for waiting until she was almost 5 to cut it, I just never did.

She sure is a stinking cute kid!

Uncle Bryan passed away on July 15, 2016.  It was a very sad day for our family.  With as many deaths as we have experienced in recent years we're really glad for eternal families.  We know we will be with him again. We were also glad that we had all just been together for the family reunion.  Although the funeral was a sad reason to get together, it is always nice to be with our family.

Lusk Family Reunion


We had our 2016 family reunion with the Lusk side the 2nd weekend of July.  Sadly I didn't take many pictures.  We always have so much fun when we get together with our large family.  We had dinner, games and a movie on Friday night and some camped out at Grandma's house.   On Saturday they had breakfast and played. Uncle Rodney and Bryan helped with an obstacle course of moving horses, milking a fake cow, making rope... (I missed this part because I went to Utah with Jaina and Amree that morning)  In the afternoon they played on the big water slide like last year again.
Sophi put together a fun game with plastic wrap and candy.  Sarah won the $10 of quarters in the middle.
