Mackay, Idaho 2013

After a four year hiatus we finally made it back to Mackay for the annual Neilson family reunion! We were able to spend time with Grandpa Neilson and celebrate his 85th birthday!



 Deacon was able to spend time with his cousins:
And meet some of his second cousins:
We all got to spend time in the great outdoors: 
Including sleeping in a tent:
 There was a huge Bocce ball playoff with brackets and everything:
 Complete with plenty of spectators:
A few adventurous folks hiked this beast:
 Trucks loaded down with people and tubes headed to the river was a common sight:
 Preston, Lindsay, and Cole :
 Anna, Jude, and Logan
 Scott and Deacon
 There was usually a volleyball game going on:
 I was able to go on walks with my favorite 5-year-old:
We had happy campers:
 And not so happy campers:
 Quinn and Carter in their giant camp chair:
 We were entertained with a family talent show featuring Uncle Joe on his makeshift drums:
 Verna and Randi with their interpretive dance:
 Sammy and Hyrum with their country swing:
The Ron Neilson family singers:
This cute little guy won a trophy for singing his favorite primary song "If the Savior Stood Beside Me"
 Fun times were had by all!
