We had a WONDERFUL time at the Dixon 2012 Family Reunion last week!
About 60 of us went to Brian Head for 3 days... we stayed in a wonderful Chateau! All the kids over 10 stayed in the bunk house...oh my! They had so much fun together!
THE WHOLE GANG!
I was asked to put together "Missionary Posters" for the 4 Missionaries out serving from the family right now... Elder Hayden-Washington Kennewick Mission... Elder Ben-California Arcadia...Elder Jake-Honduras San Pedro Sula and Elder Chase-England London!
There were fun games to be played...
Uncle Andrew took Ethan and James fishing! EJ caught 4 fish and had a wonderful time!
Noah always seems to be surrounded by cute girls! Even at the Family Reunion...
Then there was the Zip Line... Even Aunt Nita (82 yrs old!) went down... I wish I had gotten a picture of that... it was awesome!
We made family flags... we were lucky to have James' artistic skills!
We ate lots of wonderful food!! Even Grampa's Dutch Oven Chicken, Potatoes and Cobbler!
We had a family talent show:
The Armstrong/Bergquist Clan...
The Leavitt's... We loved having Uncle Wade play the Ukelele!
Uncle Mike... "So long, farewell..."
Here we are singing our cheer:
"James and Lisa...the Dixon's you knowa
5 handsome boys make the girls say wowa
Tyler, Brad, Ben and Noah
Ethan makes five, and that's for showa
And if you don't like it...we'll show you the dowa..."
Fun in the hot tub!
We had an awesome time during the "Family Olympics"! Noah ended up serving for the win in the final Volleyball game for the Championship!
The Champions!
Thanks to Carolyn and Abby for all your efforts in putting this reunion together! Wonderful memories were made for a lifetime!
Love this post and all the pictures!
ReplyDeleteYour family cheer was definitely the best one - my kids still talk about it!!
