Heaton Family Reunion 2008: Day One

Dinner! Mmmmm! Lad!

TJ and Tyson reinventing the Rocket.

Kim and Grandpa (Wearing an "I Love Brooke" hat. So sweet.)

They're gonna fight my battles for me...

Even a hero needs sustenance.

The beautiful and uber-talented Brittany! Yes. That is a quarter. (Brit was the MC for our annual talent show.)

The reenactment of an ancestral story. (I look forward to this reunion as much as Christmas...easy to see why. Ha!)

Pretty much the most amazing hip swinging talent I have ever witnessed! Way to go McCall!

Spencer and Morgan. Talented beyond belief.

Oh Sally! You little doll!

Tosh and Brooke...(someone gave me blue bubblegum.)


I couldn't fit everyone (or even one third) in one pic...but, this gives the general feeling.

Another Birthday Party...Seriously!

So...after church, Brit says..."Hey, I invited some people over for my birthday party tonight. We need a cake and stuff..." We made the best cake...like love...outta nothin' at all.
Our entire lives...every birthday...my mom has us take a pic with the cake. TRADITION! (To be read/sung in your best Fiddler on the Roof voice.)
Brit and Julie...the birthday girls. I think one should celebrate enough to last a year. Yep. We did.
Before the party, Brit was lookin' so fine...we did a little photo shoot.

These two are my personal fave-o-rites.

This happened during her party when Brit and one of the guys at the party did their own shoot. Hot Pretty Britty!

Brit and Julie's Birthday Extravaganza!

Yeah...it was a Miley Cyrus themed party and oh so much fun!

Birthday Girl Number One

Birthday Girl NĂºmero Dos

Gorgeous Gecko!

I love this sequence...

...unfortunately...

...no one went in...

Landon!

Benj! (Whom I am clearly not over.)

Remi, Tosh, Brooke, Brit

...right after she put her book down. Sally, everyone knows vampire romances never work...

Tosh and Remi. Beautiful!

Three of my Favorite people!

Our Guest of Honor

So...all of a sudden, this group of fantastically dressed 12-13 year-olds crash our party. They say..."We have one question...who are you in love with?" Awesome. Crash anytime girls. (Special thanks to Bry Cox for the photo!)

The crazy afterparty...Ha!

Summer Rodeo: Morgan the Bronc Rider

I love this kid. He was mesmerized.

Cousin Morgan riding a bronc that he said almost pulled his arm out of socket. Fun.

Sal and Ian

The classic modern cowboy.

Morgan and Landon

Ian...channeling his inner superhero.

The Next Day...At The Lake



Oh fun at the lake.


Robot dancing clinic.

Warming up for the big stuff.



Thanks to the talented Bry Cox for catching this lovely moment.

...and this. He is an amazing photographer!


So...wakeboarding was great fun, but I am not that great :)


This pretty much sums up my day of wakeboarding. I may or may not have swallowed 12 gallons of lake.

Camping With Julie!

This is Julie. She is easily one of my favorite people this side of the Milky Way. We went camping/boating with Julie's aunt Trish. It's a longer story, but this little trip was quite a turning point. Thanks Jewels/Chachi/Dr. V/Crocketteer! (...pick your fave nickname :)

I believe is my first ever tongue picture. A trip of many firsts!


Whoa.


Precious! (I just remember thinking...Ahh! Flash! Bright!)
