Derr Family Renion

We had a blast at Mack's Inn in Island Park, Idaho with all the Derrs. I got to meet so many of Zach's relatives for the first time. It had been years since everyone got together. The relaxing weekend was filled with sharing stories, floating the river, lots of naps, dutch oven dinners, and a talent show. On Sunday, the tiny Island Park ward had over 1,000 people in attendance. It looked like stake conference and then some.



Here's Phoebe, Henry's cousin, singing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star to him:



On Sunday, we visited the beautiful Mesa Falls. Then we gathered around the campfire to pay tribute to Brooke, Zach's dad, for his years of work as a professor. He just retired this spring.

Looks like you had a great time in Utah. Cousins are the best!!! Henry looks great - bigger and chubbier. We would love to have you up for dinner when you get home. B made this awesome clam bake the other night (he was getting very brave after reading Real Simple) and we were talking about which friends we could invite that would actually enjoy eating it. You were the ones that we thought of - so we need a dinner date when you get back.

I love the video of Phoebe singing to Henry. Ginny was right there, ready to give Henry his pacifier whether he needed it or not.
