Reunion: Monday Afternoon and Evening July 4th!

We spent some time at Blackridge Reservoir near the house.
Everybody remembered sunscreen but someone forgot after spraying to rub it all over!
Lots of fun on a hot afternoon.
I wonder if this was Courtney's punishment for the sunscreen incident?
The Ping Pong tournament finished with the finalists being David and Daniel.
Big smile from the winner.
The Koob tournament finished with the finalists being Andrea/Emma and Joshua.
The spectators watch as Joshua knocks down the King.  (In his first turn he knocked down all 5 baseline Koobs!)
John and family supplied sno cones for everyone with lots of flavors to choose from.
Before it got dark enough for fireworks, we had a Glow Party in the theatre room.
It was amazing!
So much creativity!
We finally took the Glow Party outside to watch fireworks.
It was spectacular from our perch on top of the hill.
At first we said: We see hundreds going off
But as the evening progressed we decided it must be thousands!
Great finish to the family reunion.  Grandpa and I really appreciated the great fireworks display in honor of our 50th Wedding Anniversary!   And we love our country too!!
P.S. A special thanks to everyone who helped so much get the house cleaned up the next day.
Until we gather again!
