A Morales Minute

On Friday we left the house in Utah to head back to Idaho where we would be picking up Koda. We were so grateful to Olivia and Chaz for watching him while we went to the reunion.  They were bummed they couldn't go to the reunion due to having classes but they wanted the Oreo tasting game experience. We brought back the left over Oreos for them to try guessing what flavor was what.    They were just as funny to watch but they guessed more of them correctly. Does that mean they eat more Oreos than the rest of the family? Emma was just like her mom. Sniffing and taking small licks and nibbles of the cookie and cream.  Lindsey was the same. She took such care to pay close attention to the senses she had available.  It was fun to play with all my kids and to have the eight of us together for just another day. Then it was time to hit the road back home. 

After our 4th of July weekend we headed to Utah for the Naylor Family Reunion. We had a bit of a let down a couple months ago that the house we were renting in Heber City was no longer being used as a rental so last minute Brian had to find another house. Luckily he found one in Orem that would fit us all. It wasn't as big or had all the nice amenities they were planning on but we were all grateful to be able to house together. It worked out great.  July 6 The first night was celebrating Mom and Dad's 50th wedding anniversary. It was a surprise to them though! They thought the theme was New Year's Eve as we were setting up for the party.  Brian started them off with the shoe game. They each held one of their own shoes and one of the other. Brian would ask them questions about them and they would answer by holding up the shoe of who they thought was the answer to the question. We got some good laughs out of it.  Then it was time for the dance. Brian sweet to play the theme...
