Memorial Day

Well our family has a tradition on Memorial day. We all go to the Milo cemetary at 10am to see the gaurd honor the Vets and shoot the guns. They also play taps on the trumpet. The kids really like the gun part and then picking up the shells afterward.
On this day we were all there but Hollie's family, they went to Salmon for a reunion. We like to see the graves decorated and teach our kids to honor their grandparents and those who have passed on before us. Then we go to mom and dads for a breakfast. we all help do the cooking and clean up. we used to go out to breakfast but you can see there is way to many of us now to do that. Our Family can fill up a whole restaurant. This is my parents and my brother and sisters all but Hollie. We always have fun when Jennifer and Allison can come for a visit. This time Braxton brough Rock band and that was a fun time for all who played.



This is my family I don't know what chase is looking at but I decided we need more pics with just our own fam. Even though Ty doesn't like to get them.



These are the kids by Grandpa and Grandma cooks Grave.




This is all the kids who were there. But Jacob and Braxton and Haylie and Emily don't consider themselves kids anymore.
We always have such a fun day and Me and my family really enjoy just hanging out. Thanks to my extended famly for making it fun.
