Dwight and Velna Blood Extended Family Blog
Welcome to the Dwight and Velna Blood Family Blog
The purpose of the Dwight and Velna Blood family blog is to provide a gathering place to collect family history, photos, family news, memorabilia, and whatever else we can think of. Let's all see where we can take it.

Help Me Resurrect Our Family Blog
As you can see, nothing has been posted on this blog since Feb 2011. I hope we can get it going again. I know the younger generation is enamored with facebook and posts everything there. However, I'd like to ask you to stick a photo or two or some comments or a family story or a travelogue or a scripture or a wise saying on here once in awhile so we can revitalize this blog. There are many advantages to a family blog. One is that the photos don't vanish quickly and we have a permanent record. The other is that a lot of people won't read facebook over the age of 15 and having a family gathering place to let each other know how each of us is doing is a useful and important thing to do. So, please help me out here and use your imagination to see if we can't make this blog a meaningful piece of our family lore and history. Thank you. DMB

Visitors from the North
Sadie loved the park, and would say "wee" each time the swing went back and forth.
Sadie's favorite thing? Feeding goldfish to Abby...instant friends!!
We celebrated Courtney's 24th birthday while they were here.
It was a great weekend!!

Tailgate for the BYU-Washington game
We had an abbreviated tailgate party for the BYU-Washington game. Monica, who usually brought a half dozen friends was in California with Michelle and leaves soon for her mission in Minneapolis. We fried in the 90 plus degree heat but BBQ chicken breasts were welcome. Jake is holding Jack, who belongs to Megan and Allan.

Football games
Amanda, Now and Once Upon a Time
Granddaughter Amanda, completed two years at Weber State College, now medical office receptionist in Denver, soon headed back to college.

More family reunion photos
No family reunion would be complete without Grandpa doing this:

Lucky for me, I was doing the same thing! And of course there was some lawn bowling, along with many other fun games!




But you need a little food to make it an official success. Lucky for us, we had some fabulous grillers!

And of course I have to include beautiful Great-grandkiddos!



And some proud Grandparents!

It was wonderful to see everyone and I know that we had a very lovely day!

Lani and Daughters
As Ron says, see what a good orthodontist can do! I can post a photo gallery easier on Typepad (Curmudgeonly Professor) than I can here, so will try to do that.

My cute kiddos
Last week, my older kids participated in a piano recital. I've been their teacher so far and I'm so proud of my little pianists!



After the recital, my little girls had a fabulous time running around together! They are stinkin' cute if I do say so myself!

We are enjoying our summer vacation and are doing all the good things like staying up too late and sleeping in and swimming a lot! I hope you all are doing well and I look forward to seeing you at the end of the month!

The Wicked Witch of Kayenta
Actually, this is a test photo to see if I could upload it in Blogspot, since it will not upload in Typepad. And it did. It looks like Penrose between the river bridge and the highway anyway.

Happy Fourth!
My parents and my brother came over for some good, wholesome, American BBQ and Fireworks on the fourth. Our street was hopping with activity and it became a regular block party. Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure!
And, because I can, I also added a couple pictures of the kids from the last few weeks:
