Greer with the Palmer Fam Part 1


Just a sampling of our fun minute-to-win-it games put on
by Uncle Alan & Aunt Vicky. They were such a blast!





Greer is always so relaxing and fun! Thanks mom
& dad for allowing us to get together like this!


Sweet & sassy-just like we LIKE em'!

Uncle Tom's rocket



He went to find the remains afterwards & instead found a water snake
for all of these cuties-the kids were pumped!
Thanks for the entertainment Uncle Tom!

We love you EFY Tacoma




Doin his session director thing :)


TEAM TACOMA in all their glory


The amazing campus that we fell in love with...
but which also looks alot like Hogwarts



Our swanky hotel--with the most AMAZING ocean view...


The dock which surrounds the hotel...


..and the wicked awesome jellyfish we found in the water by the docks. I counted 10 of them in just a small area of water. They make you want to reach out and touch them...



Girl Power-feel the love!
Robyn, Amanda, Sis P, Emily, Mallory
Joanna, & Lynn

Papa Smurf & the boys
Bro. P, Mike-E, Tyler, Ryan, & Kelson
Session Directing is always one of the funnest things we do in
the summer, and this year absolutely ROCKED our FACES OFF!
PS HUGE shout out to Jenni & Randy for the kid watching thing! Can't wait to pay you back in a couple of weeks :)

Rulon Larson Reunion

The Annual Larson Reunion in Young, AZ
We always have to include the traditional pictures on the rock-
it's just what we do!




The Family Auction-always a good time! My mom's quilt continues to pull in the big bucks!
Dave's temple pics did ok as well!

Matt the fisherman






The pinata: started with a smile!
Then: just wasn't fast enough with ALL
THOSE LARSON COUSINS, so she didn't get any candy-what a pathetic face!

Turns out: Cousin Autumn noticed the dilemma & came through with
a LOAD -- Shout Out to Cousin Autumn for the goods!

Just couldn't resist adding this one. Dave captioned this
picture the "real" Addie!

The end result: One Happy Family & good times spent with the relatives!
Looking forward to next year!

Temple Dedication





Just can't say how lucky we feel to now have a temple in this valley. It was a beautiful dedication and something we'll always remember. We were so grateful to have 2 of our 4 kids able to participate. I'm going to add their recommends and their white hankies they received in primary to their temple books. My dad gave Dave & I some beautiful embroidered ones. It was a very special day!
