The first day of the reunion was in Moccasin, AZ. This is the side (wife - Lucy) that Chris comes from. It was a three day reunion and we had been looking forward to it. Kirk had purchased 2 tons of watermelon to cut for the reunion to hand out for free. There was over 1,400 people in Moccasin. Side note: guess who cleaned out the horse trailer for these watermelons? this girl!

Kirk & his siblings.
such a great grandma.
Chris approves of the melon.
There was a monument made in Jonathan and his two wives honor, they had Kirk dedicate the monument.
Ron Johnson gave a talk, I really appreciated his words and some of the stories he told. One thing that he mention in his talk was about how his parents always told him "idle hands are the devils workshop." It really struck me when he said that, because it is so true. I realized I needed to be incredibly aware of my children and try my best to never let them have idle hands while I am raising them.
Kirk's dedication.
whose child is that playing in the dirt while this is all going on?
ours!! Amy took a lot of these pictures and I'm so grateful she did.
