Reunited after 17 years





Rhubin and his brother David have not been in contact for about 17 years.  What a awesome reunion. 
Daves kids that came from England met cousins, and made great memories.....David, Natasha, Jake and Thomas, with Rhubin, JoLynn, Willy, Noah, and Payton.  Uncle Jan (Rhubin's brother in law) passed away and we were able to get a family picture of all of us.  What a blessing it was for us all to be together.   Natasha could not get over how Dave and Rhubin were similar.  Great picture of the three of them taken in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.   Traditions---in the cemetery in Jackson Hole, you throw the dirt on the casket once it is placed in the ground. What a awesome experience it was, Roberta was the first ten Cody and Tina, then the grandkids and LauriJo, then members of the family helped throw the dirt.  It was a great closure for a lot of us.

rugby vs homecoming


Noah had a rugby tournament in Utah the day of the Highland homecoming
dance, Noah and Coleson (a teammate) were the only ones that needed to
be back for the dance, well...we had a plan to leave and get the kids home
for the dance, however, the team kept winning, and we had only the max of
players because of injuries.......the kids had to call their dates twice and post pone
when they would be home.  The second the game was over we were in the van
and headed home......We made it, JoLynn drove as fast as she could to get
the kids home...Thanks for the girls patience!!
