Vest Family Reunion~Deer Creek Reservoir

The day after our hike we headed to Deer Creek Reservoir to do some playing in the water. Dad brought up Grandpa's old fishing boat and the kids took turns going out on the water. When they weren't in the boat they were floating and playing around in the water and in the sand/dirt. Deer Creek is a far cry from the beaches of Southern California, but I know our family had a great time. Abby has been begging to go back everyday since. The kids were pretty wiped out. We have loved being with cousins while we've been here. My kids are so happy to be able to see them all of the time. I think it will be hard when we move to Highland. Aaron asks everyday if we can "buy a house a step away.." from his cousins.

Vest Family Reunion~ Hike to Timpanogos Caves

We enjoyed a great family hike to Timpanogos Caves with the Vest Family. It was hard work, but very interesting. Everyone did great and there was only minimal complaining. The views were breathtaking and terrifying.

Vest Family Reunion 2011~Spanish Fork Fiesta Days Rodeo

The Vest Family Reunion 2011 commenced with a family barbecue and a night at the Fiesta Days Rodeo. From the pre-show at 7:30 until the end of the rodeo, close to 11 p.m. made for a very long night. The kids loved the atmosphere, but weren't captivated by the rodeo itself. We ended up leaving a little bit before the end with the boys to get them to sleep because we had to wake up early the next morning to hike Timpanogos Caves. Joseph was in San Diego until late that night, so he didn't make it to the rodeo.
