This picture was taken in June, so looking back I assumed it was a Father's Day gathering, but it wasn't. Wendy has kept a journal for YEARS, and was able to note that this was a group gathering, welcoming back Shane from his mission (June 25) and a farewell before Wendy and her family moved to St. George (June 28, 1997, even though we would still see them often). So this was at Scott and Amy's Rosewood Park house in Draper. Here's a peek at Wendy's memories ...
June 27: Tonight Scott and Amy had a BBQ at their house for Shane's return and our departure! It was a lot of fun and Chris and Sandy were able to come with their three boys and so that was nice. We finally got to see their little baby Corin. He is a little cutie. We had a wonderful meal and I stuffed myself. The kids then went swimming in the kiddie pool. Jani loved every minute of it. We showed our family pictures of our new house that are on our laptop.
I believe all these photos are from Jen's camera ... but Scott and Wendy have cameras in the picture above ... are there more photos somewhere?
Found some video - live action of the event!
June 28: I wrote a few paragraphs about moving out of our condo and how we stayed overnight at Jen and Gray's. I wrote: "We forgot to pack Jani's nightgown and so she borrowed a little white onesie from Landon and they looked so cute in their twinner onesies. They ran around and had a great time." (We have a few pictures of them in their matching onesies!) We all went to Shane's homecoming on Sunday June 29th. I wrote: "Today was Shane's homecoming. He did a great job on his talk and we were very proud of him. Jeni sang a song and I signed it and it went well. We enjoyed food and company over at Mom and Dad's afterwards." We then slept at the Blackhams again and headed out Monday morning for our new home in Ivins!
Said matching onsie picture ...
