Sunset at Lake Lowell























Tuesday evening was the full moon so we went to Lake Lowell to watch the sunset and the moon rise. It made for some good photos.

Water fun on the way home.
















On our drive home we decided to stop and jump off a dock to cool off. It felt so good after camping to wash off a little bit and cool down from the hot drive. We ended up with some fun photos too.

Family Reunion at Antelope Campground

















Those of us that could, got together at Antelope Camp Ground on the Sage Hen Reservoir for our annual family reunion. Above is a photo of some of the cousins, 14 out of 22. Most of the grown up cousins weren't able to make it this year. We all made it to camp on Friday. Kristey being the last to show up since Amanda started school already. She lucked out and saved her flat tire until she arrived which gave Mike and Richard something to do. The kids all had fun by the reservoir playing in the mud, water and catching frogs. We enjoyed yummy camp food and did some fun crafts. Aunt Carla's knotting and beading table was a big hit with everyone. Some of us went on a long hike around the reservoir while others fished or played in the raft and kayak in the water.  In the evening the kids all put on a show for us to enjoy. Then we had a fire to roast marshmallows and Twinkies. It was a fun weekend and we ended with a family group photo.
