Hunter Herald June 2009

Hunter Herald
June 2009


Neil & Mike-

Trevor & Charmayne-Well, June was pretty busy. Race graduated 8th grade, is now a Star scout and well on his way to get his Eagle before 15yrs, and is now enjoying babysitting his brothers for the rest of the summer. Nick has decided not to skip another year of math so he can do soccer, basketball and track next year. Kinny is very glad to be out of the little yard and in 4th grade now. He did very well in school this year and is right on track for being at the head of his class. We're trying really hard not to put any pressure on him but it seems he is doing it himself. This summer the boys are in a physical training program with Terry. Hopefully it will help them to get into better shape. Trev and I would love to do it but we both have to work and don't have the time. Are new little chicks came at the end of May. Ten of them died so they sent replacements and then fillers. So know we have almost 20 chicks. Not sure what we're gonna do. They are growing up so fast. Can't believe it's already July!

Haylee & Ryan-

Kalli & Terry-The reunion was great! Thanks to everyone involved!! We had a great time and really enjoyed catching up. I'm very thankful to all those who continue to come, my children made great new friends of your children and we are all blessed by that. The weather is hot but we have a/c. We are still on the job hunt if anyone hears of anything. We are blessed daily in spite of having no money. We are happy and healthy and we can't complain.

Layne & Frankie-Hi,

It was a great family reunion. We missed those of you who were not able to come.
Thank you LaMont, Evelyn, and family!

The cough still lingers but the rest of the swine flu symptoms are almost completely gone.

Matthew and Karali flew in last Saturday morning for the HTG reunion. We doubled the size of the branch. 4 primary classes were added. Brynna was blessed and Kaitlynn was baptised. It was a great Father's Day present for Layne. Other than a sick Layne and baby Emily, my cell phone ending up at the bottom of Lake Kaweah Monday was the only complaint I had. McKayla wasn't too happy about ending up in the lake but she does have a nice new cast on her arm.

I guess we do have another complaint. The reunion was too short. We didn't get a chance to really talk with everybody. We have tentatively reserved a spot for next year's family reunion. Kara will check out the spot in Oakley, Idaho to see if we want to go there. If not next year, maybe the following year.

Layne is heading to Mexico Friday for a weeklong fishing trip. After I finish with girl's camp preparations, I think I am going shopping.

Love you all,
Frankie & Layne


Rachel & Rob-Reunion was great. Sometimes it seems hard to get everything ready and I know it was a lot of work for the planners but it is worth it. I am so glad we can count on it every year. Our family is doing good. Summer already seems to be flying by. We head to Texas to visit Robs family the first of July. At the end of July Cody is hiking Mount Whitney. He is excited and has been training for it. He successfully hiked Half Dome. He goes running and does stairs at the football stadium to help get ready. Rob is working on landscaping and putting in cement around the house. I am just busy being mom. well that's all for this month.

Sheila & Lyle-Family,
How nice it was to see all of you at the Hunter Reunion. Time was short, but there is still comfort and strength just being near you and seeing how your beautiful families have grown. Thanks for your efforts everyone especially LaMont and Evy's family.
After reunion we drove to Half Moon Bay with Neil, Mike, Brandy and Tom. It was a little cold and windy, but we loved it, especially Leisha. We took a nice long walk along the shore. I shared a few memories of my childhood at Half Moon Bay. Some of you may remember driving there on a Monday evening after school and work. We would roast corn and potatoes on hot coals, throw the Frisbee around and watch the sun set. The food never tasted so good.
Lyle, Leisha and I are getting ready for trek. Lyle and I are Ma's and Pa's with eleven kids to help push and pull the handcart. We will walk twenty-five miles in three days. Thanks Melissa for the pioneer clothes. They are perfect. The preparation has been amazing. We have four hundred people going from our stake. There is a fifty voice choir that meets Sunday evenings. We have been practicing square dancing. Leisha has been serving on the youth committee and will be playing a violin duet, and we have been walking. We're up to eight miles on Saturdays. Hope we make it.
Thank you everyone for all you do. Jenna thanks for keeping the Hunter Herald going. I love reading about everyone. La Mont and Evy, thanks again for all your efforts to keep things going. You all mean so much to me, and help to make up who I am.
I love you,
Sheila


Everyone at Kenneth and Chandler's birthday party!

Jenna & Kevin-Hello Family! We are really enjoying our summer vacation! We were so sad to miss the reunion! Kevin, Kaden and I went to the Jr. High to meet Kaden's band teacher today. Kaden will be playing the bass clarinet! He's totally excited for the challenge. We're loving all the rain and beautiful hiking weather. We were so sad to see Wendi and Aaron and the boys leave for Alabama! We will miss them!!! Hope everyone is happy and healthy!
We love you! Jenna and Family

Adam & Moana-We look a trip down to Hawaiibefore the twins turned 2, while they still fly for free!

It was a blast, of course. Adam got to go to Maui for the first time and loved it. We went snorkeling at a crater in the middle of the ocean, took the boys to the Zoo, ate lots of good Hawaiian food, and went swimming as much as we could. It was a perfect trip. Then a few weeks later the twins turned 2! We had a Dr. Suess "Thing 1 Thing 2 party" for them.
It was a really cute!!! Birthday's are what Mom's look forward to all year. Jenna made the Birthday cakes, which you can see in the pictures, look amazing! Thanks Jenna! We had a fun time hanging out with family and playing with all the cousins. We wish you all a Happy Summer! Love you...A.M.K.C.
