After the meal we have a family program or talent show. Many of the kids have grown up gaining courage to perform in front of others. We don't claim to have really trained talent, just kids learning to play the piano or dance and sing. Lots of laughs and silliness. Basketball and football games are the norm, and all too soon it is time to say goodbye as families have to leave to make the long trips home.
Family members reside mostly in Arizona, some in Nevada, Utah, and Hawaii.
Whenever someone can stay over it is a real treat. The Hancocks hosted. After the events at the church, all those who were game climbed upon the trailer for a hay ride through the historic town of Solomon, through the field to Ivan and Kathryn's home where the fun continued on the playground and basketball court, and don't forget the four-wheelers and dune buggys. The visiting is the BEST part of the whole day, visiting and munching on leftovers which we brought from the church.
