Fourth of July Weekend


Sunday was a very special day. The first baby ever blessed at the HVC was our grandson, Owen Wayne Edwards. He was blessed by our son, Devin. What a cute family they are. All of our family was in attendance.

It was so wonderful being with our family. Dale led a family hike. Later we will post pictures of them all on the Challenge Courses and zip-lines. Even my 88 year old mother was on the zip-line. She was a real hit with all the missionaries. She was so cute and such a sport. Our whole family was strong and courageous. There are no "fear" DNA in any of our clan. Erica and Emily have the pictures to prove it. Watch for more in a later post.

We all went to the Lake for canoe and paddle boat rides. It was a perfect day.


We gathered in the Smith Pavilion for all our meals. The food was delicious and we all over-indulged. It was so great being all together again.


It was so fun bonding with little Owen. He was soooo good, and a welcomed addition to the family. He really is a cute little guy isn't he.

OK, now I'm jealous. I have yet to meet my two newest grandchildren and in two weeks our kids are having the family reunion without us! We absolutely love our mission and wouldn't change anything, but seeing you hold that precious baby did cause a moment of envy. Love ya lots!
