Roller Valley and Fox Hill

 

Roller Valley day is a tradition our family loves.  It's really the only time I roller skate, but I love it.  It feels like my childhood.


The limbo.
Them:  Uh... Ma'am... Ma'am....please don't lean backwards for the limbo.... It's dangerous to lean backwards while skating.
 Me:  I knew that (I didn't know that)
Also Me:  GET THIS POLE OUT OF MY FACE!
She made it with two feet to spare:)

After Roller Valley we went to the cemetery close by to visit Grandpa's grave and Aunt Samatha and a few others shared memories of Grandpa Fox.  It was pretty hot out, so we didn't stay very long, but it was very nice.
These four are pretty tight-- Gentri, Annie, Elinor and Everett.
Daniel and Katie dividing up the reunion t-shirts for the family picture.
Abe and his beautiful niece Talitha who is currently doing home MTC in preparation for her mission to the Chzech Republic.  
Clark and Alexis

The return of the four-wheelers brought great joy to the children.


The three 2021 high school graduates.
This picture is a re-creation of a Fox family picture taken back when Clark was about six months old.  I'll get a hold of the old picture and do a comparison.  We are missing 17 people from this picture, so it's not even close to the whole gang.
But here's something fun...
We made the Fox family symbol with ourselves and then flew a drone to take a picture.  This was Emmalyn's work-- she's awesome!
*ABE NOTE:  Emma wanted to get some kind of shot above with her drone......but it was ACTUALLY Betsy's idea to make the Fox Symbol.....she's too modest to say so!
