SKIT NIGHT

Hi Everyone,

If you are participating Friday evening please email the name of your skit or just your family's names. We are putting together the program and need to know who's participating.Beware Chris will have something for you to do so it may be smart to plan your own talent. Looking forward to seeing everyone. Thank you Arizona gang for all the planning, we appreciate you all.
:Love to all,
Robin (grandma's favorite, of course!!!)

Pictures please!

ATTENTION !!!
The reunion is fast approaching=)
We are needing pictures by Monday the 14th. With everyone's busy schedule we need them now. If we don't get the pictures by then we will not have the slide show. Justin will be going out of town for a week or two, he has work and school. If it is too hard for people to get him pictures we will just cancell the slide show.
HERE IS WHAT WE NEED.
Pictures from anyone who served a mission who is now a part of the family.
Pictures from all the families: weddings, births, parties, family gatherings, old family reunion pictures...
We want pictures of Bob and Glen growing up and their families growing up.
