Whitaker Family Reunion

I really did marry into a fabulous family. Anytime spent with the Whitaker clan is a fun time. The Whitaker Family Reunion was great this year. We had about 50 people....we're getting pretty huge! Almost everyone made it this year although we did miss Grandma and Grandpa We were thinking about them the whole time. Grandma is dealing with some health issues right now and we are all hoping and praying for the best.

We went camping up Alpine Canyon over by Mt. Timpanogos. Lee put in so much time and effort getting everything ready for everyone. The food was fantastic and the company was just as wonderful! The kids had so much fun playing with cousins. We went hiking, kayaking, fishing, and just enjoyed spending time together. It was pretty chilly considering it IS August so a lot time was spent keeping warm around the fire! The last night we were there we played a game where you have to spell a word with your hips. Each person is a letter and you have to guess what the word is. It was pretty funny! Here are some of the guys busting a move:

and Aunt Suzan had some pretty killer hip moves as well:


Skip and Logan found this little bird on their way to the reunion. It was the cutest little chick....Kelsey named him Winston. Sadly, Winston died soon after this picture was taken...poor little guy.
After 3 days of fun, we headed home. A couple of little boys I know were pretty exhausted:


We're looking forward to the next reunion in a couple of years!
