Hallelujah, We're Home!

Not to say that it wasn't fabulous seeing all kinds of family, but I can only handle sleeping in the same room as my kids for so long! Nevertheless, we were able to see oodles of fam on both sides and the kids had a blast. Here is a taste of what the McKendricks have been up to the past couple of weeks. (Oh yeah, I am experimenting with the old blog so it is kind of random right now!)

This is us at a family reunion:



This is my great Grandmother making her Byrn's and Beck's GREAT GREAT Grandmother. She is 93 years young and looks fabulous!

We were gone for 12 days. A week of it was spent deep in the mountains near Wyoming. Kel's uncle owns 11,000 acres and so graciously allowed us to invade. It was great to visit with Kel's family. There were 3-wheelers, quads, and a polaris to go out exploring on, and explore we did! Bryn and Beck could NOT get enough. They loved it more than I ever thought they could love something, Of course there was also an abundance of smores, misquotes, and freezing cold nights!

This is where we stayed for the week :) AND
this is what we all did when we went to our first real motel (very near to the cleanliness and amenities of the covered wagon).


Beck was unsure about this experience in the beginning than he became a raging quadraholic.

It was so beautiful and we feel so fortunate to have been able to go and celebrate this reunion with family.

  2. How fun! I'm not surprised Beck is a quadraholic now... sounds like heaven for a little boy. I love their yellow shoes by the way... so cute! Too bad we didn't run into you guys - we did a lot of the same things... temple square, park city, etc. We even had to buy a couple apples from Rocky Mountain Chocolate...YUM! Glad you had a fun time!
