FoUrTh of JuLy
For the fourth of July, Merrick and I headed up to UtAh for the Howard M. Arnett ReUnIoN!!! We caravaned up there with Wendy and Heidi driving. Brittany and I went without our husbands :) We all had alot of fun...good food, great entertainment and perfect weather OH and of course ThRiFt StOrEs along the way! Danny's aunt recreated the kids hometown with games and prizes and she did a great job! On the way home we stopped to do some FiShIn....aka the kids got naked and played in the water! I didnt take alot of pics of this trip for whatever reason and the ones i did were mostly of Merrick...of course :)

WeECh FaMiLy ReUnIoN!
During PiOnEeR day/weekend my grandma's family had a big reunion down in Pima! That was alot of fun too! Once again awesome food from the CaSa and funny dancing and skits always makes for a good time! Merrick and I drove down with my sister in her new car...however on SaTurDay I was driving to go pick her up at a friends house and out of the blue this van tries to turn right from the far left lane. We got caught in the middle and next thing ya know....im bawling on the side of the road with Merrick giving the cops my side of the story. Everyone was fine but her car was not. We had to rent a car, luckily the owner of the only car rental place down there was a relative and at the reunion! Saturday afternoon we got to be in the parade!!! My grandmas sister Verla handcrafted our float and it was awesome! She had all the kids,grandkids,great grandkids, great-great grandkids and even great-great-great grandkids names on the float! Talk about time and effort! I stole some pics from my cousins blogs...

This is a list of all the kids, grands,greats,etc...its alot!

Merrick got his first black eye on Friday. He tripped over my own feet and hit his head on the coffee table. I think he was stunned when it happened cause he didnt cry too much. My mom and I jumped in the car with him and rushed him to the office to make sure he didnt need stitches. Luckily he didnt, just a steristrip for a few days.
