We just got home from a great trip last week. We did lots of fun things. We saw my dad, went camping two nights in Colorado on the way to our destination, and then had a great reunion in Winter Park Colorado. We stayed at the YMCA camp. We biked, hiked, swam, played miniature golf, real golf, indoor soccer, BMX biking, rollerskated, had pedicures, campfires, testimony meeting, talent show, tons of great food, hanging out, and played games... it was SO much fun!

Then we went to Ft. Collins, went waterskiing, and got our braces done... Thanks Uncle Mark...

Friday night we visited my brother, Tim and his family in Denver and then did the MARATHON drive home all day Sat.

It was a great trip! Thanks to everyone who worked so hard and made it so much fun! It was the BEST, we LOVED it... it was FANTASTIC!

Looks like a great trip! We've had a few "marathon" drives this summer, too - isn't it great to be home when they are finally over!?

What else do you have planned for this summer?

Amen to everything you said - it was a blast. Thanks for caravaning on the way up. We had so much fun - the caves, river, waterfall, church choir, etc. When you get a chance I need a copy of the camping pictures since my camera was dead.

Man- we really missed out! Hopefully we won't have to miss any other reunions. I'm sure you guys thought of us all the time.

Beautiful scenery, but i'm most impressed with your daughter's braids. How the heck do you do that? My poor Claire. Her only options are high or low pony or pigs.

It looks like you seriously had a great time. Those are the kind of trips that you don't ever want to end. You had a nice mix of nature, family, braces, camping...fun times. We will miss all of these things someday...Glad you had fun!
