Family reunion

I'm sitting here with the boys at swimming lessons and Tracen is sleeping in his carseat so I thought it'd be a great time to update the blog.

We had our Whitney Family reunion this past weekend up on Cedar mountain. It was lots of fun. I thought I'd post some pictures.

Here's the main draw for us cousins....the mountain biking! I actually didn't go this year. I figured that since I had a 6 week old baby mountain biking might be a little over the top for now. I did have lots of volunteering babysitters though! Aunt Susan and I did the shuttling and we stopped in Panguitch lake and got us a yummy raspberry with chocolate chips ice cream.

Grandpa Whitney, Uncle Darrell and my dad

Family Bingo: a very cute game with pictures of all the second cousins to play that Aunt Donna came up with.

And of course a favorite is paper rockets. The kids love Corey's set up that blasts homemade paper rockets into the air or in pieces depending on the rocket!

This is what happens when you try to catch rockets that are hurtling back to earth from their trip into the sky

The spectators: We were so glad that Brian and Isaac stayed in our trailer with us. Isaac is so cute and says the funniest stuff. The boys loved making him laugh.
