Reunion Day 2 - July 6, 2012

Family Reunion Day 2
The day was started off with a Treasure Hunt at BYU campus.  However, we were late and didn't make it in time for the treasure hunt.  So instead we wandered around BYU campus.  We found some crazy art, saw lots of EFY kids, and got Jamba Juice.
Dalia & Tes liked seeing the "Y" on the mountain.
BYU weird Art.

Next we went to Rock Canyon Park in Provo for a Picnic and a Huge waterslide!
Here is Rayson & Raylie going down the slide.
Raylie, Dalia, & Brian!
Dalia was so excited to go down the huge waterslide!  She started out going down with her dad and then my cousin Caitlin then down by herself!  She had so much fun!!

Family Reunion Day 1 - July 5, 2012

Today was the beginning of our 3 day family reunion.
Grandma making homemade Root beer.
 Tes & cousins playing at the playground!
 Uncle Chris, Derrin, & Uncle Curtis judging the coloring contest.  This is serious business.
 Judging.
The final decision.  Dannon came in first place (the picture at the top left) for his detailed work on the faces.  A.J. came in second, Brandon came in third, BRITNI CAME IN FOURTH!!! and Brian came in fifth!  Yes, I am a better at coloring than Brian and my brother Jerry!  Hooray for me!
 Uncle Chris announcing the coloring contest winners.
 Everyone waiting for the coloring contest results!
Tesila was beyond excited for the coloring contest results.  As soon as she knew prizes were involved she stared to color.  First she colored the grandpa & grandma and was done.  She asked Aunt Jami if she would get a prize if she only colored the people and not the background.  Aunt Jami told her she might not.  So Tes hurried and colored the background.  She excitedly took her picture to Uncle Chris to hang on the wall and asked when she got a prize.  I told her she had to wait until everyone was done coloring.  For the next few hours she kept coming to ask me if it was time for the prizes.  We have some serious colorers in my family and it took at least 2 hours for the coloring to be completed.  Finally it was time for the results of the contest and Tes couldn't have been more excited!
 Tes won 1st place in the 0-4 category and choose play-dough for her prize!!
 Dalia won 3rd place in the 5-8 category and choose Squinky toys for her prize!
 Aunt Cecile telling us a story about one of our ancestors, John Vincent Lay.
