Reunion Weekend 1

We spent this past weekend up in Logan, UT to attend the Emmett family reunion from last Thursday until Saturday. While we were there, my Grandma Smith and her siblings had a reunion lunch on Saturday at the park with all of their families so we were able to attend that as well. It was fun to take Jackie up to Logan again and have her meet more of the family on both sides. This weekend the roles will be reversed as we head down to Arizona for Reunion Weekend 2 as well be having a reunion with Jackie's Mom's family. We're excited to get these bonus trips in before we head to Portugal in two weeks for Honeymoon Part 2!

6 weeks and going strong

The Irvine Emmetts with Grandma and Grandpa Emmett

The soccer was great in the backyard, especially once Clark removed the volleyball net and poles

Check out the Emmett babes + Jack. He didn't want to miss out on the action. Reminds me a lot of this picture. It helped having him the picture because everyone's smile is a lot bigger in this picture than it is in the two other pictures I took.

Thanks for posting the pictures, Brian. It was impossible to be everywhere at the reunion and it really helps to be able to see things that you missed at the time.
