More Reunion Fun!

Every year Brent's family (by family I mean everyone down to the millionth cousin twice removed) gets together at Teton Canyon for a family reunion. If you have never been to the Teton mountains, it is a place that you cannot die without visting. It is beautiful. The girls love to run freely, eat whatever they want (Bailey is enjoying some Cheetos below), and play with cousins and get so dirty that they are hardly recognizable. Ally loves to crawl, roll, and jump in dirt. You should have seen the bath water when we were done. Gross.





One thing about the reunion is that it is very cold. I know that it is summer, but it gets frigid at that elevation so we decided this year we would stay at a hotel. I can't believe that I have gotten to the point in my life that I can't hack staying in a tent for a few days with my kids, but that time has arrived. Brent and I woke up after a long night in the hotel and were so thankful that we didn't add crammed tent space, freezing night air, and bear country to mix of sleepless night.
Even with the convenience of a hotel, we really missed being up at the reunion and enjoying the evenings around the fire and staying up late visiting and playing games. It's just not the same when you stay down the road. Don't be surprised if you see us in a trailer next year.
One part of the reunion we love is going to this great mountain waterfall just off the table rock trail and take a family picture every year. It is fun to see the changes over the years. We had a great time with everyone and look forward to next year!
