Nuttall Family Reunion

Over the 4th of July weekend, we attended the Nuttall Family Reunion. My Grandpa, Keith Nuttall, turned 80 years old on July 1st, so we had a birthday celebration for him. My Grandpa used to be a famous boxer when he was younger. He won the golden gloves at least twice, and he was the featherweight champion of the world. He has had an interesting life to say the least. At our reunion his children all got up and told stories about his life. It was such an enjoyable time to hear about what an incredible person he is. He surely has passed down admirable traits to his children and grandchildren. Among those traits are toughness, working incredibly hard, love for family and others, and a wonderful sense of humor. My Grandpa used to always tell me (when referring to my height), "Dynamite comes in small packages." What a great Grandpa.



Here is my uncle, Keith Nuttall Jr. He told a funny story about the time he went boating with Grandpa and Grandpa fell out of the boat. 


Here is my mother with a pair of old boxing gloves that my Grandpa used when he was younger. She told stories about the whole family (11 children) all going fishing together. 


Here is my uncle, Cory Nuttall. He told a bunch of funny stories as well.


Here is my uncle, Kevin Nuttall. He told a story about my Grandpa's wild driving habits.


Here is my Grandpa's ex-wife and my Grandma, Colleen Nuttall. She is such a wonderful Grandma. She is the most caring, loving, and happy person I know. Isn't her smile beautiful?


Here is my aunt Linda, she told a spiritual story about an answer to my Grandpa's prayer.


Here is the fam listening to the stories.
