Rex Family Reunion. Nanny and Grandpa's 50th Wedding Celebration.

In the last weekend in July we had a family reunion with the Rex side of the family.

We were celebrating my Nanny and Grandpa's 50th wedding anniversary.

Which meant we got to go to Richfield and see BOTH side of the family which is ALWAYS a bonus.

We went up to Richfield Thursday night.

We stayed at Grandma and Grandpa C's which is always a bonus.

Grandma even made us two batches of peanut butter bars.

MMM I love them.

So we got to Richy and visited with the Christensen family.. Aunt She, Rish, Ty, The Barclays and Grandma and Grandpa C!

I love being in Richfield and spending time with family.

Then we headed over to My Nanny and Grandpas house to see the other side of the family.

My Uncle Kevin made a really awesome slide show of my Nanny and Grandpas first 50 years of marriage.

It was fun to see the pictures of my mom and her siblings when they were little.

My mom was a used to be a little chunck. Can you believe that?

Because I couldn't haha.

They slide show made me a little teary eyed. But then again what doesn't.

The next day we woke up BRIGHT and EARLY and headed up to Manti.

The parents did a session in the temple and the kids did baptizims.

 My cousin Celeste, Addie and I watched my Uncle Jud's girls.

They are SOOO adorable.

And oh boy let me tell ya we had a ball!

We finished getting ready in the visitors center bath room.

Added some curls to the girls hair.

Then we played lots of fun things outside,

Like...

Dance concerts.

Sang songs.

Ring around the rosies.

Played tag..

Then we got hungry and I was craving a COKE so we drove down to Millers Drive Inn.

We all got ice cream and had a ball.

Finally everyone was done at the temple.

We went to the motel to check in.

We stayed at the Temple View Lodge

Got changed and went to the luncheon at the Manti House,

The food was much better then when I remembered it last time.

We heard stories about how nanny and gpa met ate laughed and just had a good time.

Since there wasn't a pool in Manti or really anything else to do we decided to walk up Manti's main street and checked out all the cute little shops.
We had a fun time.

We got back from window shopping and put a blanket on the grass and just relaxed while the little girls and adults took their naps.

Then my mom and Uncle Jud decided that we were going to have hot dogs and salads and chips for dinner.

So while that was being prepped for all of us we were playing volleyball and sat around and chatted.

After that we walked up to the temple to watch the sunset. It was BEAUTiFUL.

Then we walked back to the motel and had s'mores for dessert.

The next day we woke up, had breakfast and parted our ways.

Some of the family went back home and the rest of us went back to RICHY!

We hung out some more.

Went swimming.

Did a cute craft

Here is mine

I don't know why it won't flip but it won't.

I think I want to make more of theses but do just a T then a & and a C too.

It was so much fun seeing both sides of the families and spending time with them as well.
