Bishop Family Reunion

Every two years my moms family gets together for a big reunion. This year was my Uncle Ross and Aunt Betty Rae's families turn to put it on. We always have the reunion in Oak City canyon since that is the closest to Delta Utah where they all grew up. They did an wonderful job keeping everyone occupied. First every one was divided into teams a red team and yellow team. Each day there were challenges for the teams ranging from water balloon launching, kick ball, relay race, 2 truths and 1 lie, mouse trap,crafts, sling ball, redneck horseshoes and my kids' favorite building the tallest tower out of things from either camp or around the camp ground. It was tons of fun and created a bond between family members. My kids look forward to the Bishop family reunion. Next year is our families turn so if you have any good ideas feel free to pass them on.

When Paytan saw this family tree that Aunt Betty Rae had taken time to prepare she was amazed at how many generations there were.

It all started with these two amazing people who left this earth way to soon. Grandma passed away in May of 81 and Grandpa passed away 6 months later. We didn't get much of a chance to see them when they were alive but the memories I have and the things I have heard over the years creates a deep fondness for them. They are so dear to me that even seeing pictures of them brings tears to my eyes.

Uncle Clynn is currently serving a mission so he was unable to attend the reunion but was greatly missed. His sons did a very good job as they would say of "representing" the family.
Each one of these people hold a very special place in my heart.

We are only short 6 cousins out of the whole family who were unable to make it.
