Dana Reunion at Panguitch Lake

Welcome to Panguitch!  This guy has been here too long maybe...  We had a great time at the cabin at Panguitch Lake with all of my family (except Dennis and Allen).  

The highlight for most of us was meeting Benny for the first time.  He's Melia and Scott's not-so-new baby.  He cried the first two times I held him, but as you can see by the end of the week we were best buddies!

These five little girls were giddy with anticipation for Spencer to arrive, but soon they transferred their affections to Aaron as well...I don't think Spencer minded too much.

Tanner spent most of his time on his dirt bike.

Nathan tried to slice his gpa up with a light saber.

More entertainment for Aaron with Sage and Seth joining the other five this time.

Jeff and Chase.

Spencer and Aaron reading Seth's awesome composition "The Speed Boat" which he wrote about our trip to Lake Powell last summer...he got a good grade on it too!

Seth and Nate engrossed in a serious game of chess.  Colin also gave them a whole lot of advice.

Grandpa Dana in the hat we got him for Father's Day.

Grandpa and Chase.

Benny, Grandma, and Ruth.

Chase trying to learn to whistle with a blade of grass.  He couldn't quite master it this year...next year!

Nate, Seth and Colin spent nearly all their time on the zipline.

Getting down is the hardest part of the zipline experience.

Latest victim of the chipmunk catchers.

Jessica and Megan spent days building and decorating their fort.

Ta da!

Making necklaces with Aunt Dionne.

I even made some special ones for my Scrabble friends!

 
Auntie Ruth had fun giving the kids guitar lessons.  The little girls got pretty good at Old MacDonald!

Spencer serenaded us on his Xaphoon (bamboo sax).  I like it better when I'm not driving.

Benny and Melia...cute!

Scott and Tanner spent 2 days fishing together and had a great time!  They grilled us some delicious lemon garlic trout for lunch.

Seth enjoyed his catch!  Notice Scott left the heads on so as not to waste any meat.

Uncle Scott told Tanner the eyeballs are a delicacy in Japan, so of course Tanner had to try one! He's braver than me!
