The Cooks have our annual family reunion during Labor day weekend and this year we went somewhere stunning. We were staying at Brian Head and Saturday morning the weather cleared up enough to go see Cedar Breaks national monument... if you haven't been it is well worth the trip. The view is breathtaking and you can see so much from the short trails that are there. We were so happy that Mom and Dad and Aunt Emma could make up down from California, moms doctor really wanted her to be able to make it to this one because she couldn't make it to the last one and so he let her out of the hospital Thursday, even though her fever wasn't completely gone. We were so happy to have her there.
we took a nice walk along the ridge, but the pictures just don't do it justice
everything else around the place is green, the red just pops
Grandma and Adam enjoying a snack together along the trail
Grandpa and Dad talking business
Emma and Milla pulling funny faces, not sure why :)
I could not get this little funny face to look at me, he loved the dirt.
The boys had so much energy and Adam caught on quick that he wasn't supposed to go anywhere close to the edge.
The rest of the reunion went pretty well. we played a lot of games including a new favorite, resistance, and did a lot of catching up with family. Sunday we attended Sacrament meeting at the town hall and had a lovely relaxing day. Unfortunately the altitude was a little much for mom and after they got home she had to go to the Hospital again for another fever caused by blood clots in her lungs. She seems to be doing better now and she was able to be out of the hospital for her birthday on Sunday. The next time we see her, we will have to be the ones doing the traveling, so we are planing on Christmas in California!
