My daughter Miriam spent time with me on July 22nd before their family reunion with their children.
Tony managed his business in Iowa on the computer from my home.
Miriam and I played games while we visited.
My granddaughter Kaitlyn drove down from Farmington to visit her friend and took time to come and visit me on July 23, 2020.
Miriam came for me to go with her to Mapleton to be at some of their family reunion. They had a fun ball game.
It was wonderful to see so many of my great grandchildren that came to their reunion in Utah from Texas, Colorado, Kansas and Iowa.
The children had fun setting off bottle rockets.
They had lots of good food at their reunion.
We had a good place to watch the 24th of July fireworks. Mapleton put on a great show.
After breakfast at my home on Saturday morning, July 25th, 2020 Miriam and Tony invited me to spend the day with them at their third day of family reunion in Mapleton at the home of Kasey and Emily.
When we arrived the children were having fun doing face painting.
My great grandchildren looked cute with the tie dye shirts that their Grandma made for them the day before.
It was fun for me to help with some cute carnival games that Miriam planned for her grandchildren.
They enjoyed the egg game.
They would pull a ball our and find where to put it.
Another fun activity was the ring toss game.
The children enjoyed playing musical chairs.
Miriam taught her children a line dance.
I especially enjoyed getting acquainted with my newest great grandbaby.
Miriam and Tony planned a devotional for their posterity.
They were able to get Carrie and Colby and their families on zoom to participate with us. They were not able to attend the reunion because of Covid 19. Miriam said that for a short time they had all their children and twenty grandchildren together enjoying the devotional.
They invited me to give a message. I chose to tell my grandchildren and great grandchildren some stories bout their pioneer ancestors and their faith and sacrifice for our church and the importance of keeping the chain strong. Both Miriam and Tony had great messages for their posterity and told them of their love and testimony.
Miriam and Tony gave all their family t-shirts with "Beck Battalion B" printed on it to let them know that they were a team working together to help each other live the gospel of Jesus Christ.
They gave me a shirt too. This is a fun souvenir for me to remember the fun reunion with my oldest daughter and her wonderful family.
