Every August, Taylor's parents and all of his siblings try to get together. It is always a lot of fun, especially for the kids. There is no shortage of cousins to play with! We played at Lagoon, rode the gondolas up to the top of Snow Basin, went swimming at the pool, took a family hike, and played games at the park. I didn't participate in everything due to my body not being healed yet, but it was nice to be able to spend time with family.

| The uncles had fun playing "Pass the Kids". This is Ray flying high thanks to Uncle Jon and Uncle Greg. |
 |
| Ray loved it when Taylor took him on the Carousel. |
 |
| Jaymon really loved the rides this year - can you tell? :) |
 |
| Taylie and Avari in the gondola at Snow Basin. |
 |
| I got to ride with these two little cuties (Ray and Savannah). |
 |
| It is really beautiful up at the top of Snow Basin. Here is Ray, Taylor, Jaymon, and I. The bigger kids were busy sliding down a glacier that was just a short distance away. |

 |
| Taylor and Ray - what cute boys! |
 |
| Grandpa Clark taking Jaymon for a little hike. Jaymon loves his grandparents. |
 |
| Taylor's Uncle Reed joined us for dinner one evening. If you tell him your middle name is Reed, then he will give you a dollar, so all the kids lined up to tell him they also had Reed as a middle name. I think they cleaned out his wallet! (This is Ellie, Tylor, Karis, Jayden, Avari, Mike, and Reed.) |
 |
| Aunt Misty is a lot of fun and planned games for everyone to do at the park. This was a game where rubber chickens were launched with a water balloon launcher and then people tried to catch the chickens in these big clown pants. It was pretty funny - especially with the kids who were smaller than the pants. Here is Jaymon, Ellie, and Aliyah. |
 |
| The "Big Boys" tried the chicken-catching game as well. Here is Ryan, Mike, Nate, Greg, and Taylor. |
 |
| Another game the dads were involved in was this one where they had to try to carry a whole bunch of kids at one time and run to the finish line. Luckily nobody got hurt! |
 |
| This was a special game for the little kids to see which one of the 2-year-olds could empty a box of tissues first. Savannah and Cleo were both pretty good at this one! |
 |
| In this game for the cousins, the kids had to move a cookie from their foreheads into their mouths without using their hands. I wonder what Aunt Misty will come up with for next time! :) |
