The Huber Family reunion was at Derek's parents house this year in Melba, Idaho. We got there a few days before the reunion started. Kevin & Tami's family was there early too. Our girls were very excited to see each other again.

| this is where the girls pretty much always were |
 |
| we quickly found out that the grass was very sharp and itchy. The kids were covered in scrapes and itching like crazy the first night. |
Since we were there early we were able to help out some with the float for the 4th of July parade the family was going to be in......
Parade day came. A lot of family came. Derek's Mom made bonnets for all of the grandchildren to wear. We all had matching shirts that said: "Got Family?" The float won Grand Prize!
Since we were the first float in the parade we were able to unload all of the kids so they could see the rest of the parade and get loads of candy.
Derek and I stopped off and bought some fireworks so we could have a little celebration that night.
Prior to the fireworks we all just hung out and had a lot of fun.
The next day was the official start of the reunion. We all wore our shirts to get a big family picture, which I don't have. In fact, i barely got my camera out the rest of the reunion. I did get a lot of video though. :)
We had a bbq and played games.

The next day we went to the Roller skating rink where Derek's Mom grew up skating at. We also toured the little city the she grew up in, had lunch at the park and spent the evening watching slideshows of Don & Paula growing up.

The next day we spent the day touring the city Derek's dad grew up in. Then spent the evening at Joyce's house.

Oh Brooke, the pictures are just wonderful. How proud and happy Don and Paula had to be.....
Blake in the stroller with his leg up looks just like Avery!
Really enjoyed all your pictures.
Did you get your yard mowed? Lol
Love you
nope. We had someone mow it 2 1/2 weeks after we left. A neighbor kid mowed the front lawn twice as well. We have great neighbors that looked after the house really well.
The lawn doesn't look all that bad, but it has rained every day since we've been home so it will probably need to be mowed in the next couple days.
I was just relating to your neighbor knocking on your door the morning you got home.....
Send the rain our way....
oh, ha.......yeah, well that's probably the reason the lawn was taken care of the other two times. :)
