Carlos leaves,Montana comes, I go to Denver, I return and the Ellis family has a reunion

 Carlos' farewell was Sunday the 12th.
He'll leave for Argentina on Monday.
Wednesday the 14th I drove to Twin Falls and met Montana and her mom.  I've had fun with her and Tayson lots of days since she arrived since Joni and Mikey both work.  I took them and Elliott to see Inside Out on Monday before I flew to Denver.

Jess and Dan were asked to be a Ma and Pa for their stake's pioneer trek.  And yes, she's very pregnant.  So I got to spend the week with the fun Chapman kids.
 


We went swimming..



Had an early birthday party for Jacob.

Went to McDonald's.


Went to an awesome splash pad.


Went to a skate park.





And went to see Inside Out.

I came home Saturday, the 18th.



 Monday, the 20th was the Ellis cousin reunion that my mom planned and put together.






It was lots of fun.
Today I got to take Tayson, Montana and Elliott swimming. 
 Life is fun and busy!

Sunday stuff and last night of family time.

After church we were all tired.  Jon left early from Jenny's house and Josh's family left early from Jason's house.  We rested after Jenny's 9 to 12 church.  Nicole brought us her amazingly delish chicken casserole.  It was a fun and relaxing end to the reunion.  The Chapmans and Jack's family stayed until Tuesday, but Richard and I drove to my sister Monday and home on Tuesday.  It was another great reunion and more fun than ever!  Thanks everyone for coming and Especially to Jenny and James for organizing it!  Thanks for hosting us Kendalls and Jason and Nicole!  Next year in Utah!  That way we should get Joni and Mikey's family there, too!

Kendall Gym, the Beach, the Cajun Greek, Hanging at Kendalls and Guys night out.

Galveston Beach is so nice and the water is warm!
These 2 were a little jealous of our pedicures, so Jenny did their toes for them.



















Only picture I have at the Cajun Greek.  It was good food just believe me.



The guys went to see Jurassic World while the kids and moms hung out at Jen's.
