Back to Utah- McKay Reunion

We braved it and drove all the way back to Utah to go to the Mckay Family Reunion. I have fond memories growing up riding horses and playing in the barn at the Rock House. The Rock House has been in our family for generations and it is next to David O. Mckay's home. The reunion is in Hunstsville UT, a small town that is pretty much inhabited by family members. Chad(mom's cousin) and Wendy own the rock house now. They had 8 boys and 2 girls. They are a fun family and our kids made friends with their kids easily. The kids slept anywhere from balconies to lofts and us adults all had a nice room and beds to sleep in. Thanks to the Mckays and kids for letting us take over. When we got there, they were swimming and i had to show the kids the huge tree swing. Friday night is the bonfire with food and a short program. We played volleyball and the kids did the zipline. Falling asleep with the windows open was nice and I could hear Dawson and Brigham talking about their schools. On Saturday we got up for breakfast and fun at Quinn and Shirley's. We also did a scavenger hunt that lead around Huntsville to the Cemetary, Summer house, and the pasture. Each destination we learned more about our family history. This was great although we were in a hurry. We didn't win : ( After that we all went to get ready to go to Barry's property for lunch and the water slide. The kids had a lot of fun at the water slide even though the water is pretty cold when it comes out of those big irragation pipes. We had to start home about 4 and the kids did not want to leave. They were all begging to come back next year. I am glad that we decided to drive all the way back to Utah for that day and half experience.We only have a few pics from swimming but I don't have pics from when I was little and I will never forget it.
