We just got back from our family reunion with all of the Double B's siblings and their families up American Fork canyon. Best time ever!!!
It's been a looong time since we've done anything like that and we were all in seventh heaven. The mountains were absolutely beautiful, the weather was gorgeous, and the company couldn't be better. We are blessed with amazing families. We are family people, that is just our jam.
So relaxing, and the kids loved every second. It's kind of too bad our littles are city kids, because they are total wilderness explorers.
Here's Benson, living his best life on the way up to northern Utah.
The view from our camp site. Not too shabby, right!?
The Double B comes from an awesome family. The kids are all so great and the adults had great chances to visit and enjoy everyone's company.
His big sister Megan kept cracking me UP. She got in some excellent zingers that first day while we were setting up camp. The Double B was putting up the tent and pointed out some dips and she said "I only see one dip here." 😂 Then while we were having fun whispering to each other about his funny ways she said "I love him like a brother." 😂😂😂 I die.
Lots of yummy food, games, FHE, movies in the open air at night, exploring, the lake, a trip to an ice cream shop, and lots of fun memories made.
Benson was a big help putting up the tent. Hammering with one hand and holding his "spider kid" mask on with the other hand. It was a fabulous disguise all week, as you can imagine.
Everybody took a turn on the kayaks, even Grandma! Benson and Katelyn loved riding with Dad, and KJ and Liv had a blast on their own. They all loved the water, even though it was freezing, and stayed in it almost the whole time. It was a blast.
Driving down the canyon to get to the lake, Benson had a coughing fit. I asked him if he was okay and he said "Yes. I need brownies (cough, cough)... and ice cream (cough, cough)... and pine cones." We all had a good laugh at that one!
So fun.
Families are the best.
