Friday, June 22nd
- Breakfast: Mark and Elizabeth
- Morning: The Classic Matchup on the courts
- Lunch: Megan and Adam
- Afternoon: The Mole Hunt revisited--remember that game from the Ranch?--or some other creative Foster competition at Little Flat Rock (Jeff and Angie in charge) (To answer the Mick's concerns: bring your two walkie talkies, and anyone else that may have access to some, bring 'em. But I'm counting on Jeff and Angie to come up with some game that's even better--is that possible?--than the Mole Hunt, one that may not even need walkie talkies . . .)
- Dinner: Ty and Dana
- Evening: Catch a flick in Prescott. Ocean's Thirteen, anyone? (Megan in charge) (Megan is previewing Ocean's Thirteen for us. Any suggestions on what to do with the kid's this night?)
Saturday, June 23rd

- Late Afternoon: Everybody gets cleaned up for Pictures on the tennis courts (Margaret in charge)
- Dinner: Potluck with the Boice Clan on the tennis courts
- Evening: Nertz tourney? Night-climbing? Guitar playing? We'll just let this night sort of happen . . .
Sunday, June 24th
- Breakfast: Mickey & Margaret
- Morning: Sunday Devotional in Iron Springs with the Rustand Family (Drew and Kristen in charge) (Drew and Kristen: give Carson a call to work out details on the devotional. I'm envisioning something with just the Fosters and Rustands, but it's your baby. Don't let us down.)
- Lunch: Drew & Kristen
- Afternoon: Hike to the Old Mill? City Hill? Railroad loop? Humpty-Dumpty? (Ty and Dana in charge) . . . somewhere on this hike, Mark will challenge (and defeat) Drew in a ten-yard dash (and Mark gets a five yard head start)
- Dinner: Jeff & Angie
- Evening: Official Foster Family Council (Mickey in charge)
- Nighttime: Final family guitar session, featuring a group rendition of Soolaimon by Neil Diamond. Please listen to this song carefully, master its lyrics, and ponder its message deep in your hearts. We must do Neil proud on this night . . (
Monday, June 25th
- Breakfast: Ty and Dana
- Morning: Golf Tournament, nine holes at Antelope Hills (Mark in charge)
- Everybody clean up cabin and head for the hills by noon . . . on your own for lunch.
- Reunion adjourned. To be continued next summer at Breckenridge thanks to Mick and Megan.
Other issues:
- Forget the Video contest--postponed until November due to technological limitations as pointed out by Jeff.
- Food: Sorry about the confusion. Dana's idea is a good one--I had forgotten about it. How about those who want to buy food communally and then split the tab give Mom a grocery list by Thursday morning? Otherwise, you'll get the food on your own. Be aware, though, that it is probably at least a ninety minute round trip to Prescott for that will need to be worked into another day . . . But as you all suggested, someone would need to make that trip anyway to re-stock milk, etc.
- Cabin space: we'll all be cozily together in one cabin, but we need to be cognizant of everyone's space, and specifically of the little ones (and newborns) who need their bedtimes, naps, and peace and quiet. 'Nuff said. Just to reiterate . . .

Mark, your the best idea man this family has ever seen. We are so dang excited to be starting these festivities in just a week and a half!!!! Really, we cannot wait.
Everything looks great. Thanks again!
Looks fantastic, and I will try and bring my game to win the glory.
I like it. I like it a lot.
Ou family is growing. I love the picture Mark. Plan looks great. Now the trick is to implement it with precision.
By the way, don't count the old man out on the ping-pong tournament. I still got game.
Dad
Mark, it looks great! It's going to be really fun. I like the challenge of coming up with a totally sweet new game to play instead of the mole hunt, which will be hard to beat. I hope we can rise to meet your expectations.
I'd be happy to watch the kids during the movie. I mean, a movie would be fun but I don't really care that much about seeing it.
Ang,
I think that Margaret talked about getting Carrie's two girls (?) to watch kids while we go to the movie. We also talked about going to a later movie so that most, or all, of the kids would be in bed. I don't know if that's what you want to do? Just thought I would fill you in!
Okay, that sounds cool. Thanks!
