We have been waiting for this reunion for 2 years. The kids love going up to the farm in Washington where Travis was raised. The get to run around all day playing in the fields and chasing the cats. I love it because I never hear from them the whole time. We had to get the kids up at 3:30am to catch our flight....ouch!
Riding the airport shuttle at 4am....
Flying to Seattle then onto Pasco......Mount Rainer above the clouds!
Travis and Luke had a fun time on the dirt bike riding around the farm. They even played football on it!
Kennedy, Brynn, Luke, & Uncle Joseph playing on the trampoline.
Kamryn & cousin Carson sitting on the tractor.
Girl cousins having fun.
Makala & Meredith with baby Rex and Lyle.....got to see my dear friend Makala and her new twin boys. They were so darling. There is no one like Makala, she is the example of all examples. I feel truly blessed to have crossed paths with her. She is the one who helped me survive nursing school, always there routing me on, I think Heavenly Father knew exactly who/what I needed during nursing school.....love you Makala!
Grandma & Drew riding the lawn mower.
Kamryn spent all her waking hours chasing dogs and cats.....she is a bit pet neglected at home.
Kam loving her smores......
Drew jumping off the high dive for the first time.....way to go Drew!
Luke and I got to go try and shoot guns.....it had a pretty good kick that it cut my thumb......believe it or not, but I even shot an MP5......now that's crazy!
All the couples got away for a night after the kids were in bed and went hot tubing.....so fun!
Night out to the Columbia RiverTemple. This was a special night because we did sealings together and their Grandpa Cook was the sealer.....awesome family!

They do a parade every year where they throw out tons of candy and even icecream bars (now that is my kind of a parade).....they also bring the fire hose!
