This year our families surprised us by each choosing to have their reunions the same weekend. Labor day weekend. Some would see this as a dilemma....we decided it gave us time to see both families in one weekend!! It was a busily scheduled weekend but totally worth it.
Part one: The husbands side in New Harmony
Everyone met in New Harmony, Ut for dinner at Grandma and Grandpa Hunts home. It was great to meet new family and just get to know everyone better. Saturday morning some of us hiked Kanarraville Falls along with tons of labor day hikers! Then that night we played their annual game of bingo. Not your typical game of Bingo though, grandma Hunt really gets into it and spent somewhere around $300 on prizes. Yeah, they go big! First Hunt family reunion was a success!!
Part Two: The wife's side on Kolob
Sunday and Monday were spent camping up on Kolob mountain. This was the first year not being up there the whole weekend, but that's part of being married and learning to split time with each family! When we got up there Ethan rode the zip line for the first time...superman style! It was great to visit with all the family during meals and visiting with the cousins our age around a camp fire that night! That needs to happen more often! Oh and Ethan and I tied for first place in the Newly wed game! Boo-ya!! How's that for only 8 months of marriage!? ;)
The tent we borrowed from Ethans parents may have been smaller than we'd liked. haha it was pretty much just a one man tent, but we made it work. It will be a memory we'll have forever of our first time camping as a married couple in the smallest tent imaginable! I loved it acutally, more of a reason for cuddling! ;)
My handsome camping man!
One of our cousins just had boy/girl twins, so we made sure to get a "twin" picture! They are the cutest little things and almost make me want twins of my own....Almost! What dolls!
