Kinghorn Family Reunion

At the beginning of the month we went to Utah for family reunion. The drive was long and sometimes hot (if the car would start overheating, we would have to turn off the a.c.). I didn't think the car was going to make it, so I would keep saying little prayers in my head asking Heavenly Father to get us there safely. After a while of driving I realized that everything was going to be okay and that the car would get us there. I felt so relived!

Once we got to Utah, we saw some beautiful scenery. I love Utah so much. When we would drive by beautiful cities, we would day dream about how cool it would be to live there. Well, after 13 hours of driving we got to Eagle Mountain and stayed the night at Kristi's (Phillip's sister). It was really nice of her to let us stay in her home.

The next day we got ready and headed over to Cherry Hill located in Kaysville. We got checked in and got our tent set up. Then once everyone showed up we went and played home run derby. I think the guys had lots of fun.

My favorite day of family reunion was Saturday. In the morning we drove to Salt Lake City and had a photography session for family pictures. I am so excited to see them! After pictures we headed back to Cherry Hill and rode the water slides all day long! It was a lot of fun. We had so much fun that we all forgot to take pictures :P


Sunday we got up early, got ready and went to Music and the Spoken Word in the Conference Center. It was really nice, I had never been to it. Then we went to get our stuff at Cherry Hill and headed to Tremonton where we spent the rest of the day with Moe and his family. We had a lot of fun playing with the kids, singing and talking to Moe and Angela. We stayed up late talking and had to wake up early the next day because Phillip had a Dr.'s appointment in Salt Lake. I think we only had about 4 hours of sleep, we were so tired! Sadly, we had to head back home. We drove most of the way and stopped at a place called Buffalo Bills in the state border of Nevada and California. The next morning we drove the rest of the way (about 3 1/2 hrs.) It was nice to be back home, Maya wasn't feeling too well that day because she was teething. So it was nice for her to be able to get lots of rest. We are glad we went, we had a great weekend!
