Good Times - Family Reunion

Scott and I were lucky enough to get to plan the Mortensen Family Reunion this year. We decided to play it low key since we had all just had a wedding. In Ashlie's words - our reunion was "official hanging out" since we had all been hanging already for four days. It was great. We kicked off our reunion with a family crossword puzzle, which the girls dominated by the way, and the kids got to spend a fun night in the tent watching a movie and having a slumber party with Grandma and Grandpa. The next day, we a had a yummy breakfast, packed a picnic and went for a hike. It was a little rainy and chilly, but we still had a great time on the hike. We really miss the mountains!!! After our hike and picnic, we headed back home to have a bocce tournament.... Glenn and I BARELY lost to Wes and Martha! It's okay though, we thought we'd be nice and let them win. Then we had a really yummy BBQ rib dinner, and the kids tye died t-shirts.
The boys working hard on the crossword - nice try boys!
The girls - the WINNERS
Our hike up Logan canyon - we were headed to see some waterfalls -

Another family picture with almost all of us - notice the 2 cute little baby bundles?
They were so cute and cozy in their wraps!

Wes wanted to do something really manly, so he tried to shoot magpies with a BB gun - go Wes!

oh how fun! it looks like you had loads of fun visiting your families. i was hoping you'd post some pics of Liz's wedding-- I want to see that gorgeous bride. Aaah, if only I'd gotten my act together and set her up with Brett long ago... she could be my sister-in-law. ;) Tell her congratulations from us!
