Capitol Reef!

This past weekend we took a trip up to Capitol Reef National Park for Mark's family reunion. His mom's family has a ranch house up there, so we spent the weekend there enjoying the gorgeous scenery and good company. When we got there on Friday night we had a big fire to roast hot dogs, brats and s'mores. So good! Unfortunately my camera battery died that night, so I only got a few pictures. Then on Saturday I woke up with a fever and chills so I stayed in bed all day, but Sunday we took a drive in the National Park to see the gorgeous red rock cliffs. On the way home we ate at the delicious Mom's Cafe in Salina, Utah.

Here are some pictures of the festivities:



Our nephew Kimball doing what boys do best: getting dirty!

Mark and I hanging out by the fire



Kimball found a fishing net and kept "catching" himself with it...hilarious!



Our adorable niece Audrey. She already knows how to work it for the camera, and she's not even a year old!


Mark and his sister Janae eating some delicious S'mores!

Janae roasting some of Uncle Andy's homemade marshmallows...delicious!

We had a blast this past weekend, and we can't wait to go again!!
