Thompson Family Reunion

It's the first week in August, and it's usually our Bear Lake trip, so where are the boats and the sand? Surprise, it's a different destination this year as the Thompson siblings wanted to camp at Philadelphia Flat in the mountains above Ephraim, Utah, where they used to camp as kids. We loaded up the motorhomes, tents, motorcycles, horses, and warm clothing and headed up to 10,000 feet! 17 Thompsons came this year.

It's a beautiful spot, we felt like we were on top of the world way up here. We had a little rain, but mostly nice weather. It was cool all week and it felt so good!

We brought up some blocks of wood, paint, stickers and modge podge and let the kids have at it. We had some pretty clever creations! Surprisingly, 6 year old Morgan worked the hardest on his blocks. He wanted to make one for him and one for his mom, and he liked a little of everything! We crafted the morning of my birthday, and it was a fun way to spend the day.

Clint gives the thumbs up while riding Erick's horse Smokey. Since we didn't go to Bear Lake, we got the chance to bring the horses and do some different things!

A little mountain biking and dirt biking kept everyone busy. Here's Colton showing off his skills!

We had a great time, thanks Thompson family! We're so glad we have this reunion every year!
