Rigby Family Reunion

I honestly wasn't sure my family reunion would be happening this year with all the uncertainty and because Loren, Todd, Brayden and I still had a bit of congestion and coughs. We were worried for Kiana because if she got sick she couldn't get on the plane to Arizona the next week for school. We were also worried for Cam's family with Adeline. So Brayden got tested for Covid and tested negative. We figured since we all got it from he and Todd we were probably good to go.

We stared Friday morning with a bike ride/hike at Wayne's loop. Brayden, Loren, Nate and Kiana biked it while Dad, mom, the kids and I hiked it. I think I can say I enjoy biking it rather than hiking and there were a few times I wasn't sure the girls were going to make it. But with mom and dad's help with carrying them and providing flower distractions, we made it. It really is such a beautiful place and was so fun to share with my family.

After that we packed up our camping gear and headed to Pioneer Campground up Blacksmith Fork Canyon. I was amazed at how shady and beautiful it was!

After we set up our tents and got settled in we had an awesome dinner of Spaghetti and watermelon. I think Hudson had five slices.

The girls were so, SO excited to go camping. Here was our set up, affectionately named the Taj Mahal. Loren decided to take Hudson home to sleep since it was only twenty minutes away so it was just the girls and I in a 10 person tent. We had plenty of room!

After dinner we decided to walk down to the Shenoah picnic area and watch Nate and Kiana fish. They didn't catch anything but it was a beautiful evening.

Todd made his own rod with a stick and some string he found.

We came back to camp and had some delicious s'mores. Though we found out Hudson hates sticky marshmallow on his hands. After I put the girls to bed we had ourselves an epic Werewolf game. It was so fun!

The next morning we packed up and drove back to mom and dad's for the giant inflatable slide! This thing was so fun! The boys had a blast playing King of the Slide. It was so fast and even faster when we put the baby shampoo on it. So fun!

We were so happy that Cam and Mary came with Greyson and Adeline! Adeline is the sweetest thing you've ever seen. She's so small, around six pounds with the biggest eyes and most adorable facial expressions. I'm in love!

Em and Tyson put together some awesome water games. This one was throwing a water ball through the targets to see who could get the most points.

This one was hilarious. They taped flip flops to huge paper feet and you had to wear them while holding a water balloon in a spoon and racing around the pools and back.
