Strong Family Reunion 2014

 The Strong's had a family reunion during the month of July. It was over the weekend at Darby Girls camp, up Darby canyon, in Alta WY. (about 15 minutes from my Mother in Laws) We stayed in the cabins. A couple of John's sisters put it on and did a great job at it! (Thanks again!!!) My sister-in-law, Sandra, made a really fun book through Shutterfly and we all got copies, so I won't share much on my blog.  All but 3 families and a couple of older nephews were able to make it to the reunion. It was a good turn out considering how many people we were trying to get together. Alison and I had our T-shirts designed.
 Raegan and Kynleigh had a blast hanging out with their cousins for a few days. They were so dirty that whole weekend, they loved it!
 We went on a small hike with some of the younger kids while the more brave ones hiked up to The Monument.
 The best part of the weekend was being able to spend it with this guys!
 We survived our part of the hike and the girls actually walked most of the way. Wahoo! (Man my pregnant belly sure popped out fast this go around, I think I was 14 or 15 weeks at the Reunion...? I can't remember)
 Some of the main attractions of girls camp was this amazingly long slide! I'm pretty sure the kids spend most their time going down and hiking back up to go back down. Some how Raegan would connive a older cousin to carry her back up...she is pretty good at that.
 another big hit was the sand volleyball. It was John and I's favorite part anyways. The kids loved playing in the sand and Aunt Jessica was smart and brought sand toys, so the kids loved it too!
 John and I got put in charge of an activity for the reunion and we decided to make Marshmallow guns out of PVC. It was a hit!
All and All it was a great time, with great weather, scenery and people! We were grateful we were able to join the Strong family in another successful reunion! We love those guys! ;)
