WEDNESDAY...............

Wednesday.... We drove up to Tetonia where the family reunion was to be held. J & C are really good friends of my parents. They live on 40 acres there in the valley and were sweet enough to let us intrude on them for the week. Janece and Derick came up and brought the 5th wheel then Derick drove back to town so that he could work the rest of the week. I had such a good time with my little sister. We haven't spent time alone for a really long time. Then there is her little one Alexa. What a doll baby. She is so much fun. We also took Tiera and Miranda, my sister in laws two girls up with us to kind of keep Emily company and so that she wasn't saddled with Alexa the entire time that we were up there. We shared meals while up there and helped each other cook and clean up. I loved it. Each evening J would start a big bonfire so we told stories and reminised alot.
Thursday... We drove up to Jackson Hole, WY and spent the afternoon just messing around. Janece and the girls went up a little early so that they could go swimming. C works for the City of Jackson and was able to get free passes for the 5 of them. They got done soon enough that we could wander around and then be where we needed to so that we could watch the Shoot Out. I've seen the shoot out a number of times in my life but, none of the kids had ever seen it. They loved every minute of it. Shane J, and I drove up a little later. We stopped and found my brother Dean. He lives in a group home up there. We took him with us up to Jackson. When we got back my Uncle Tom and Aunt Doris had shown up with their Daughter Stephanie and her husband Pat. We had a real enjoyable evening getting caught up.
