Lyman Family Reunion

I know I should post more than 2 pics but I just don't have the patience for Mr. Blogger.
Never you worry, though, for all the pics will go in my 12x12 blurb book. ( :
"I'm not going to deny the fact that I'm quite FOND of these reunions, that I greatly ESTEEM them, that I LIKE them." (quote adapted from Sense & Sensibility when Elenor is trying to tell of her increasing attraction towards Edward when in fact she is COMPLETELY IN LOVE with him!)
I won't even TRY to hide the fact that just looking over all the pictures I took (134) makes me cry.
I get filled with all sorts of feelings of ... gratitude mostly.
I missed SO MANY PEOPLE that weren't there. How could you miss on a year with SUCH COOL T-SHIRTS? Quite frankly it makes me sick. Kidding.
We're going to make ALL the pics available somewhere. Probably the Angie & Willis Lyman website is my guess.
My favorite parts about this years reunion were (in no particular order):
  1. the Program (Cynthia reading from Grandma's Mission journal, Alisa's story about her dream of Aunt Millie, always Morgan and Abs,Grandpa Asael's war stories.
  2. the Shirts
  3. Aunt Cynthia's house of which I'm completely charmed by.
  4. getting a romantic picture with Bryan on a horse.

I feel you channeling Marcia Lynn in that last picture ;). Why, oh, why do I have to be huge and pregnant during these critical moments! My one consolation is that, YES, our whole fam got shirts! A tiny sliver of that heaven will be ours. Missed you guys this weekend!

So funny watching Rodger lead you and Bryan around on that horse.

Oh man! We totally missed out. I mean, I knew we would...but seeing pictures just adds salt to the wound. And those tshirts. Seriously?!?! They are pretty sweet.

Great shirts...not as cool as the shirts we made in high school, but much more age appropriate!
Looks like an awesome reunion too!
