Lagoon Day Eve Surprise

Lagoon Day Eve gained a little added sparkle when Jeremy and Jenny and their girls surprised us by showing up from Phoenix!  We made the most of it and had the girls stay the night, in between the dinner and Lagoon the next day.  We love our cousins.  Araceli especially misses her Phoenix cousins, so it's extra special when they get to see each other.
This was Jeremy's last time to see Golda before her mission.  Actually, the next day was.  I'm so happy they came up, because the entire family was together.  That will be a rarity in the coming years, with such a large family hitting such a transitional time of life.

Golda and Evyn.  He's temporarily home form his mission for shoulder surgery.
That day, Anna and Sarah Kletzli, Tori Wuthrich and Ashley Padget had their missionary farewells.  We all went to Ashley's, since she's one of our honorary daughters who went to Europe with us last fall.  Araceli got to hold a baby, her favorite thing!
Good luck in Puerto Rico, Sister Padget.
The cemetery was where Neeley and the girls surprised us!


Scott go emotional at dinner.  Surprise, surprise. :)
Louise Hill and Annette Poulton.  We were lucky to have so many Hills join us.  It's so good to see the family.
Spencer and Louise's kids, David, Virginia and Kathryn.  Caroline couldn't come, but I gound out that we both work at the same place, at different times.  Refugee and Immigrant Center.
Ann and Marlon
Jennie and Lexie
Jenny and Lindsay
Skylar and his kids.


Marlo and Michelle
It was Avery's birthday!
Some of the cute girls.  We love this family and our traditions together.  Same time, same place next year?
