Family Reunion!

We just got back from my Family Reunion up at Bear Lake and we had a blast!! There were over 55 of us there this time, we were missing about 20 or so that weren't able to attend. We missed all of the family that weren't able to be there, but hopefully they will be able to attend the next reunion in 2 years!

The 5 days were filled with lots of family and lots of fun! I don't remember all of the things we did, so I might have to copy and paste from my cousin Kimber's Blog to help remind me. Here's what we did...

played the games "do you love your neighbor", steal the bacon, volleyball, ultimate frisbee, sponge dodgeball, water balloon toss, the newlywed game and lots of different board games
Participated in:
women's circle
men's round table
children's craft
muddy buddy demo
eating lots of apricots
a game room which had ping pong, pool, foosball, dart board, basketball game thing
early morning brisk walks and kimberobics
listening to grandpa talk about granny woodruff and wilford woodruff
a wonderful testimony meeting
blanket stitching demo
morning and evening devotionals
looking through everyone's wedding albums
the missionary map
the family tree map
homemade kellogg ice cream
our awesome family reunion shirts

And here are some pictures from it!

Ryan had been talking about Papusas for the longest time, so we were finally able to go to a Papusaria in Logan on the way to and from Bear Lake, they were way good and Ryan was so excited to finally eat them again!

We went 4 wheeling early Friday morning with my cousin and her hubby. There were some gorgeous trees all over!

The view from the top of the mountain that we drove up while riding the 4 wheelers. It was so beautiful!

I taught all the ladies how to make headbands. These were a few that were made, they did really well!

We were there during their "Raspberry Days" so we went into "town" and had a Raspberry Shake!
