Gentry’s 19!

Seriously, how did my baby grow up so fast? Can’t believe she is 19!  

Happy Birthday Gentry Bo!!

Gentry’s birthday was on a Monday, we had just returned from the Peterson family reunion in Pine Valley the night before where we all had cake and ice cream, sang happy birthday and she received a couple gifts from grandma and grandpa and Calli and Levi. 

That same night she decided she wanted to open her gifts and not wait until Monday. She was excited to get a Spotify gift card, a new electric toothbrush and Sony headphones. That night we made pizza and watched a movie. 

The next day (her actual birthday) she ended up not needing to nanny Grae so she slept in, worked out and just chílled. That night we had cheesecake…

And she had balloons filled with money to pop! 
Hope you had a great day and weekend Bilbo! Love you to pieces! Enjoy your last year of being a “teen” 

Peterson Reunion

 August 26-28, 2020

Pine Valley
2nd annual Peterson Reunion
Same spot as last year! 
I love Pine Valley
Waiting for cousins to arrive! 
Calli, Levi and Koda made it! 
Once everyone got there we played games and ate dinner! 


Little Koda! He had a blast. He lives his best life all weekend. Running everywhere, getting pet by everyone and finding pine ones and sticks. 
Love when he does this. Just sits!! 
He would go hard all day and then crash just as hard! 
During dinner we got a thunder shower. Just when I thought Pine Valley couldn’t smell any better! 

It was so lovely!

Late night chatting around the fire! 
Cute Hope all bundled up.
The next morning we all ate breakfast and then headed to Enterprise for the corn fest! 
Ready for another adventure!
Once we got back the day was spent playing games, 
Riding scooters, long boards and go carts 

listening to grandpas stories. 
Hiking with cousins 

catching snakes, seeing deer…
Eating dinner…

Adam’s amazing masterpieces
Celebrating birthdays…
And hanging out chatting. Adam’s cousin Matt who lives in Santa Clara brought his family up for dinner. It was good seeing him again! 
That night we played more games…
Say around the fire and stayed up way too late! 
Sunday Calli and Levi had another family reunion in Oine Valley at 5:00pm so we just packed up, chilled, ate lunch and hung out. 
Cute little family!

Later than afternoon, we checked out and went to the Pine Valley church and took a tour. In all my eyes living so close I have never visited it but had always wanted too. It was pretty cool!



It had three stories!
Looking out one of the windows 
Steep tight stairs. I feel like a lot of the historic sites have steep tight stairs and little doors. Haha!
The curved roof built like a ship by a ship builder. 
The chapel and theater. 


Mike Dobson added his name to one of the pews during renovation. 
Vents for air conditioning, added much later. 


The rope is a bell that they still ring for church each Sunday! 

It was definitely worth the stop. Made me want to attend church there one of these Sundays. It was a great weekend full of family and fun!! Until next year!!
