Bobbie Jean made the flags for our Cowboys and Indians game "capture the flag" with comments from Cassie, saying "This is going to be so much fun."
I know I don't know how to play this, but apparently the next generation does. They have played it at conferences and so forth. We want all the family to get involved. It will take up a big area and we have found just the spot, close to camp. You will have to have some strategies to steal the other teams flag. ( Bobbie Jean will have the rules and game outline at the reunion)

well we have created some interest for the reunion at least. Most of the comments have been about the Cook Off, so i will attempt to explain some of it. We are organizing as questions come up, but i'm pretty sure we have a handle on it.
First there will be 5 teams divided into the whole gang. Whom will be in your group is not known by you until the Friday night at camp.We have already determined your teams but will not devulge until Friday night. I will give a list of things provided by us your host and a we won't provide list, that might help you in deciding what you want to bring.
We will Provide
Meat
Potatoes
Salad fixins/ranch dressing
Rolls/butter
Cake Mix/ Can of fruit
Paper plates/ware

We won't provide
Cooking Utensils
Spices
Sauces
recipes
Some of the rules will be you can bring or borrow anything in camp to help you prepare this meal. You will be cooking for about 10 people.

Friday Update on agenda is Tiera will be doing our Family pictures and will have a sign up sheet with her. She will also be doing a dating game following the photo shoot.Should be fun for the whole group, lots of laughs included.



Any question please contact any of the three of us, Shasta, BJ, Janice

4th of July

A day to celebrate the freedoms that have been sacrificed for us that I am truely grateful for.I wish that the original freedoms would still be intact but slowly we are loosing them. I am grateful for all family and friends that have made American Great! I have been a fan of Sarah Palin and am sad to see her give up her governorship but it must be for a good reason, at the very least to save the tax payers money for all the lawsuits happening to her.

Reunion News:

Thea, Maddie and Tinker have all agreed to be in charge of the children younger than themselves during the Friday and Saturday Night Casino Tournaments. Great I think!!!
