REUNION FOR 2015

Dear Family,

The summer has been so busy that I am way behind on blog posts.  It has been full time living the summer and little time to write about it so we will catch up.

On one of our trips to St. Charles to our place on Bear Lake, Suz, Becca Mom and I looked over a spot for the 2015 reunion.

This will be the year of my 80th birthday as well.  Do not know how many more of these mega reunions we will be able to hold but we have one planned for next summer!

We found this facility in Garden City, down the road a few miles from our little farm.  It is called The Sunrise Resort at Harbor Village in Garden City right across from the large Marina there.  We all went together and checked it out.  It is fabulous and a great place for a large family reunion.  They call it a multi-generational reunion spot.  It is a modernized old lighthouse.  It has 19 bedrooms
and sleeps 90 easily.  There is a massive dining room with multiple kitchens that will seat as manny as well. We currently have 116 un the immediate family but some of the grandchildren will be away on missions

The bedrooms are great with individual showers and bath, a wall Apple TV in each room.  There is a theater in the basement with leather seats that hold about 40.  We decided that his would be great and I put down a huge partial payment to hold it for July 2nd, 3rd and 4th.  The fourth is on  Saturday. We check out on the 5th in time for church in St. Charles.

We hope you all can come as I am not sure of how many more reunions we will be able to organize in the future.  There is plenty of space so we can all be together.  We can plan all sorts of activities such as golfing, boating, family programs in the evening etc.  Mom is thinking about this everyday and we will probably form committees for planning. We are excited about this and it should be great.  Contact Mom with plans and ideas.

Mark your calendars.  We chose the 4th as it is usually a time when all are to of school, church summer activities are fewer and all usually get off work.

Excited about this,

Love you all, Mom and Dad
