Norris Family Reunion

David's parents moved to Minersville, UT last summer. {it's a tiny little town near Cedar City} The landscape reminds me a lot of Snowflake area. Lots of wind, lots of dirt and lots of brush.

Tate 3yrs. {Eugene & Brooke's boy} w/ Trent They are a month apart.
The kids had so much fun getting RE-Acquainted with their UTAH cousins

Brooklyn with Sarah {Dwain & Anita's oldest}
Feeding the horse was their favorite part, I would guess. Sarah was so into tying the bailing rope into knots. I was amazed, she must have learned that from her dad. I really enjoyed just following the kids around and watching them play.

Grandpa's man-made mountain, {this is their backyard} was a big hit.
So everyone except for me was out working hard on building the porch. It was kind of weird to not be helping, {growing up with my background and all} I'm sure I could have jumped in and helped. I can't decide if I was too lazy or if I was to worried about leaving my kids UN-attended. either way. I became the, self-proclaimed, Water girl... only for the morning and the lunch maker.

Anjuli {Quinn's wife}
Dad's ingenious idea was to paint all the boards before they nailed them up.
I thought it was VERY smart, but then again, I wasn't the one painting.

This is the front porch, they also built the back porch which was even bigger!


Quinn


David
There's just something about a hard working guy that...


Dwain {David's bro} and Brianne {David' sis.}
Like i said it was nice and windy, like find your trampoline in the neighbors yard windy, except they don't have any neighbors.


Team work! Everyone did so much and they got a lot done. I was amazed at their SKILLS!
