Micah's brothers and sister were all in town last weekend so we decided to use a nearby park for its real intended purpose...Family Picture Photo Op. We did everything we could to not end up on awkwardfamilyphotos.com but you can be the judge: 
The blue and white hat belonged to Micah's younger brother that passed away 11 years ago this August. His family tries to have it in all their family pictures as a tribute. I need to dig up some old pictures that show how much Taj looks like his late uncle Jacob in that hat.
Part of the reason for the get-together was to celebrate some birthdays. Ben and Gabe are 14 years and a day apart...you know how big families go.
My father-in-law Steve temporarily lost his senses and offered to take us all out to eat for the birthday boys. We went to Salt Lake to The Melting Pot; a tabletop fondue place. The food was awesome and I won't even go into the detail about how much I dream about the Turtle Chocolate dessert fondue. Taj and Eden were little angels during the three hours we were there. Little angels that can't sit still and want to stick their fingers in the pots. They had fun once the chocolate covered marshmallows arrived.

Something about "the Big City" still makes us feel like country bumpkins. What's this? A parking meter?*************************
Since the Smiths are all boys and one girl, anytime they get together a basketball game ensues. This time they got some cousins and neighbors involved:
