Friday we went through the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house. It is so beautiful!
Next stop, This is the Place Park! We had a great time...
riding the train...
riding on the ponies, Sorry boys, even with your pants pulled up past your bellybuttons you don't LOOK 10 yrs. old you do act like it though ha ha :)...
School! Everyones very favorite of course :)...
candle making...
petting zoo...
more pony rides...
last but not least, singing in the concert hall.
We went home for our very first WHITING IDOL! It was a night we will NEVER forget! Sunny and Cher were a hit even though Matt who was acting as Simon told them they were better grandparents then singers! Monica (Kara) and I (Paula) TOTALLY disagreed!
The younger Sunny and Cher did an amazing job too!
Jac, Thomas, and Emily sang, Hakuna Matada from the Lion King. They were AMAZING! They must have gotten all their talent from Grandma and Grandpa!
We had singing, stories, a piano duet, guitar playing...
and we even learned a few lessons like, "You are what you eat" it took some of us a few hints to figure this one out :) We also learned how to be MUSCULAR! Wade even tried to flirt with Kara (to get a good vote of course) Can you believe it? She actually fell for it!
Saturday morning began with a hike to Bridal Veil Falls
Grandma Pink came down for the afternoon and enjoyed the ropes course with us!
We were so glad to have her with us! Matt was glad he could finally give Grandma her long awaited massage.
There was a huge Zip line. I was so impressed when Emily, Justin and Gracie were brave enough to go!
We look good in our gear don't you think?
The swing was a blast to WATCH! Look at everyone's faces and you'll know what I mean :)
We also had some team building games
I think Justin's face says it all!
We spent Saturday evening at Nunns Park eating another yummy meal that Megan prepared for us. She even made tinfoil smores for everyone! We loved goofing off and playing charades. Mitch is a natural!
We ended the reunion by celebrating Grandpa's 67th birthday. Do you like the shirt Jac picked out for him? We also enjoyed checking out the expiration dates and seeing how good Emily looks with long hair!
Like I said, it was a weekend of craziness but it is one we will never forget!
Thanks everyone for the wonderful memories!
