Markling Family Reunion!

The whole clan in our matching shirts!

My favorite two people in this are Piper and Justin...along with my Dad, who didn't move an inch between the 1st shot & this one.

Yes, that crazy fool is my brother about to fall off the cliff..
(hiking through Bryce Canyon)

My and my bro.

The main crash pad in Duck Creek, Utah.

Who knew horseshoe's could be so entertaining..

I was trying to get Jerry to look in my direction and happened to catch the flying horseshoe as it whizzed across.

Let the good times roll.
(that cake was divine. divine.)

What does this remind you of?

The hummingbirds were fearless.

So were the horny toads.

And the chipmunks...well...I will just leave it at that.

Jeff- the master horseshoe opponent.

Paige was a really good sport!

Harley throwing a fast one.

Gramps

Crackin' jokes
(or watching my Mom throw horseshoe's. Sorry Mom.)

About two weeks ago, we had our Markling Family Reunion! We had family come from all over, including Alaska, Colorado & Las Vegas to name a few. It was so much fun hanging out in the mountains with some family members we haven't seen in over 10 years! We played horseshoe's, rode 4 wheelers, went hiking through Bryce Canyon and had a hoot watching "Duck Creek Days", which just so happens to be the biggest thing to hit that neck of the woods the entire year. Our motel, (yes we stayed in a motel without any air conditioning in the middle of July) was right across the street from all the excitement of the festivities going on. Needless to say, we didn't sleep very well while trying to cool off with our windows open, listening to the terrible band called "The Muddy Boots" playing all night long. Still, we had a fun time! Life just wouldn't be the same without family reunions.
