AK Smith Reunion - 2011

While we were in Utah we got to go up to Heber City, Utah for my dad's family reunion. We stayed at the beautiful church property called "Heber Valley Girl's Camp". They use this property for church girl's camps during the week and then they rent it out on the weekend for family reunions.

When we arrived we unloaded our cars and threw our sleeping bags out on the the bunk beds inside the cabins. We had 4 cabins - one for all the kids - one for my dad's family, one for my uncle Kirk's family and one for my aunt Karleen's family.

My cousin Tyra came with a craft for all the ladies and girls. We made darling glass charm necklaces. We also made really cute rosebud hair bows and bracelets. It was fun to sit and visit with my cousins and aunts and uncles that we don't see too often.

My aunt Marilyn had a service project for us to work on too. It was tying tiny balloons to flip flops to decorate them. These flip flops are going to be sent over to Africa.

Saturday morning after a delicious breakfast we headed out to the challenge course. We divided up into teams and went on 6 different challenge courses. Here is Steve and Mackenzie on one of the challenge courses.

My cousin Noelle was in charge of the reunion this year and she did a fabulous job organizing it. We had delicious meals, fun crafts, games, a service project and a campfire where we shared memories of our grandpa and grandma Smith. It was sure a lot of fun to see everyone again. We look forward to the next AK Smith reunion in 2013.
