The Hall Extended Family Reunion

For the third big activity in about 8 days, we hosted the Hall Extended family reunion today at the Stoker Park as well.

Cody Nakae and Emily McKinney  (our side of the family)

Potluck Again--the best!

 We did a Pinewood Derby race which the kids loved.

Indy Hamblin, part of the Wynn Hall family
(Ray and LaFond Hall)
Waiting for the cars to race
Kylie and Indy Hamblin
She is the daughter of Gary's cousin Wynn and she is married to
Austen's uncle Gerald Hamblin
(small world!)
Jena, Vonette, and Holly Hall
This is the family of Gary's dad, Wayne Hall.  He was the 6th of seven children.

The "founding" generation
Holly Hall (married to Wayne Hall), Aunt LaFond (married to Ray Hall), Cal and Rada (Rada is the twin to Ray)
Rada and Ruth (who wasn't there) are the only children still alive.
These are and were all great people who learned to work hard and
love each other in the fields of Idaho and Utah.  I am proud to be part of them.

for Hayden as well.
Again, nice weather, yard games for adults and kids, and time to be together as a family. 

I unloaded the car at home and then took a very ...very long afternoon nap in the cool and the dark of our basement. 

And no more party planning until the end of July--the Giberson Family Reunion in New Mexico. More fun times ahead.
