Trip Event 5: Hart Family Reunion

The  Hart family reunion that is held every two years. It's for my parents, siblings, and our offspring.

 This year there were 38 out of 47 of us there.  Yvonne and her family, my parents, and my oldest niece Katherine were missed.  We did have Katherine's fiance though, which was a cool bonus. 

Random facts about the Harts:

• 13 children 
• 10 are alive today
• 4 boys
• 9 girls
• 9 are married - Spencer is the lone wolf (and he's cute ladies!)
• 7 have children -Kaitlyn and Tim are trying to adopt --click here.
• 25 grandchildren
• oldest is 20 and the youngest is 2 months
• 15 girls
• 10 boys

 My parent's oldest child, Gus, is now 43 and their youngest child, Valerie, is 19.   My parent's oldest grandchild, Katherine, is engaged to be married in August. 

   My parents have children living in Utah, Arizona, Washington, Alaska, New York, and Dubai.  We are getting pretty spread out, but we love spending time together.
