Reunion time
Rodeback Reunion. We had a slide show for the family that represented each member of the family. We are 90 Strong. After the slide show we presented everyone with their "dog tags" and then we stamped our Family number on the back
Each family unit held up a letter to spell out Rodeback. (more pictures to come)
One of our crafts was the "branding". Thaoe and Spencer worked on a logo for each family.
Can you make out each family?? Mom & Dad's Brand in on the top left.
We also had a Cookie Contest. YUM OH.... Elaine made Skookies. Chocolate chip cookies baked in small cast iron skillets. Yes we all devoured them...
Lots of pictures of the reunion. I will be making CDs of all the pictures and will include the slideshow for anyone who wants one. See ya next year at reunion.

Bad Service etc but a good time with Brian & Jenni. March Kalei's birthday. Amber has been with us for the past three weeks and we have had fun doing crafts.

girls and put their names on them. We filled them with clothes for the girls.
