End of July, until the first week of August we had a Brown family reunion in Wyoming, just outside of Thayne. It was a really fun week and it was nice to spend so much time with family and not have any distractions.
We all vanpooled up together and made a stop in Soda Springs, Idaho so my SIL could reminisce about the good ole days of her youth. Our cabin was very rustic.
hanging out in the pavilion. This is where we ate meals, shot guns, watched a movie, played games and made a mess with rocks.
my one year old nephew was so excited when grandma let him hold the pellet gun.

evenings spent around the fire.
we spent a day up in Jackson Hole. Our family walked around the shops and then went to the rec center and swam. For dinner we met back up with everyone at The Bar J Wranglers.

Ryan and the three older kids took a 4 hour horse back ride with cousins and Ryan's parents. They all loved it and said it was so gorgeous up in the back country.
stopped for lunch
Charlotte got to ride around on a horse before the older kids took off.
We spent a few days playing in the river near by. because of the current, we tied a rope to the boat so the kids could still float around.
The boys fished one of the days but only Gavin caught something.
Ryan took the kids on a hike to a natural spring while I sat down by the car and waited. They each got to take a drink where the spring came out of the mountain.
