Merill's 80th Celebration

For Merill's 80th birthday we all gathered at Jordanelle Reservoir.
A bunch of us took turns playing ball with Ben.  Here he has roped Andy, Dan and Todd into a game :)


Matt played a lot of spike ball with the guys.



Nancy was eager to get a bunch of group pics :)
Here are the guys.  It was amazing we got Ben smiling!

And then all the grandkids present (minus Ben and plus James :)

All the grandkids including Ben (and James :)

We spent another couple of days in Park City with the group.
Ben had to learn how to share his usual toys with some younger babies :)
There were some moments but no one was permanently injured 😬

Lyndi and Jenny put together a fun mega bingo game for everyone.
Andy was encouraged by Lyndi to write a poem with the help of AI.
He took it and turned it into a song.
He and Todd performed it with much laughing involved :)


Some cousin bonding after Sacrament meeting...


I loved seeing all these white shirts as they gathered 'round the table to play a game!

And Ben found the birthday boy to play ball with him.
