Extended Rogers Family Week

This has been a very fun week to spend time with the Rogers extended family. Monday, June 21, was Uncle Frank Byer's 74th birthday so we celebrated at McGrath's Seafood Restaurant near South Towne Mall.
It was fun to haveTiffany, Harvey and Justin Keetch join us. Tiffany is Uncle Frank's niece and Bonita Yanda's daughter.
John, his sister Lillis, the birthday boy Frank Byers, and his sister Bonita Yanda. Frank's cousin also joined us.
Friday, I went with Kristilyn, Grant, and James to Lagoon for their stake day. At the entrance we met Marilee Smith and her two cute boys Jamin and Michael who were there with her friends from work.
Saturday afternoon Craig, Lissa and newly-wed's Josh and Krista came for dinner and an opportunity to meet the family. It was fun to have the cousins-Jason and Julie Burningham, Krista and Josh Rogers, and Mark and Kristilyn Eliason together. Keith and Kim were with her father for his birthday celebration.
Josh and and Krista are living in Provo attending school. Craig and Lissa brought their wedding presents to them from their marriage three weeks ago. Both Josh and Krista are working in retail to help them get through school. Nick and Renee are expecting a baby. The rest of the family are doing well. Ben has purchased a home in Louisana. He will eventually be going to Afganistan for a year. We loved looking at the beautiful photo albums of wedding pictures and other family pictures.
Wedding pictures from Melissa's blog: Ben, Rebecca, Josh, Melissa, and Nick.
Craig and Lissa's family on Josh's wedding day. All of Craig's family are now married in the temple to wonderful companions. Craig, Lissa, Dennis, Frank, Kathryn, John, Kathie, and Lillis. Smiths brought cute grandchildren Tara, Jason, and Samuel who had a fun time playing with Grant and James.

Siblings--John, Craig, Kathie, and Lillis. Dave and Tam were missed. They are in Oregon for Jeff's son's ordination to the Priesthood. I can't believe that Kyle is twelve already.
