Dowdle Reunion in Heber, Arizona



Grandpa and Granny Dowdle at our family reunion. Oma and her crazy sisters! They think they are young and in-shape, I bet they were sore the next day.
(left to right) Aunt Candace, Aunt Kim, Oma, Aunt Pat, Aunt Denise, Aunt LaSchelle
I truly think these ladies have lost their marbles. They are acting REALLY silly!

My cousin, April Layton, decided to do LaSchelle's hair. She didn't quite realize how curly her hair would really get. April is starting to get a little nervous. LaSchelle is majorly freaking out!

Shall we call her 'CURLY SUE' or 'Olivia Newton John' from the movie GREASE? Her hair turned out SUPER curly. April fixed her bangs and it actually looked cute, especially when it relaxed a little.


Like our DOWDLE shirts (thanks Allen's who did the design, simple)!


What a CUTE family! I love them so much...


Case working on an "OREO" cookie!

There they are FINALLY acting their age!
Lindsey helping out with Adam & Jenessa's twin, Coby.
Who is that HANDSOME man? Oh, it is my husband! Cole and Tanner planning in the dirt. This tractor helped keep several little ones busy.

Cole loved to fill the digger with dirt.

Pinata time...Cole got to hit Clifford trying to get some candy.


There were several fun games and activities.


(Bubble gum blowing contest, pinata, horseshoes, softball, Family Fued, Bingo (with prizes),


cards, games, rocket lauching, and lots of people to visit with!)


Conner hanging out on the pier of a fun pond!

Row, row, row your boat...


Lindsey, Kayla Romeny, Brenley Layton


Watch out her comes FARMER Cole!

Uncle Johnny and Papa Larsen playing horseshoes.
Uncle Steve Schneider brought a rocket to launch.
It was lots of fun and kept everyone busy for hours.
Erik, Cole, and Lindsey taking a canoe ride. This canoe was lots of fun, although a few people tipped over. The kids loved taking rides. The teenagers enjoyed being able to give others rides.
Cole was hoping to stay dry. Erik took them for quite a ride.
Lindsey and Cole enjoy the beautiful weather.

Cole and Kylee playing in the rocks after it had rained. The ground was wet and fun to play in.
Carly chewing gum wearing one of the hats from the Family Fued Game.
Cole and Kylee playing with a hola hoop - they are the best of friends.

Conner and Tanner - 2 peas in a pod.
They LOVE hanging out! We loved having the Romney's here.

Our family reunion was a blast. We slept in our tent and were one of the lucky ones when it rained that our tent didn't leak. Poor Steverson's their TENT LEAKED, ugh!

We love Granny and Grandpa Dowdle and are gratefully for all the aunts and all they did to make the reunion successful. Oma was the sister incharge and she did an amazing job!
