Gray Merrill Reunion at Big Lake

And we're off.....
Our kids call it the "Train".
We had so much fun!
We ended up haning out in the trailer some of the time because of the rain and hail,
but we sure had a fun time with Aunt Judy while stuck inside the trailer.
Charlotte and Kalicia loved showing off for her.
Amaron and Brodee shot a rabbit for dinner. Brodee was so proud of it!
Austin had fun helping them prepare it for dinner
and eating it!
We had some exciting adventures in our Ranger. We just had Uncle Amaron add new seats to the back and extra roll bars. He did some excellent work. The back seat is so comfortable even with all the jumps and bumping around, the girls were rocked to sleep.

Charlotte got to try out her new quad up in the mountains. She actually did really well. She understands how the gas and the steering works.
She is still working on understanding the brakes!!!!
She loved going fast!
(I just sat on the back for safety, to be the brakes.)
Grandma Merrill made the campout so special. She took pictures of all the families, put some geneology together for us to learn about our ancestors. Then she wrote a special letter to each one of her grandchildren, what a treasure those letters will be.
The girls put on a cute little dance performance with Aunt Rachell as the director.
They said to give us a Diva pose, so Charlotte went all out!
They loved the dancing to Hanna Montana!
Jon was such a fun big brother while camping!
He was constantly playing with the kids!
Caroline sure loved the mud,
but I think her favorite part ended up being the bath in the Kitchen sink.

We had so much fun being with all our cousins!!!!!


Happy Birthday Aunt Rachelle!!!
