Last week my family had a reunion in Utah at the BYU Aspen Grove family camp. This was the first time my entire family has been together in 10 years! There was so much for everyone to do, even with the very few breaks from the constant downpours (always seeming the hardest when we would walk to the dining hall). The kids had groups to go to each day with the other kids their age. They swam (even with it being COLD!), did crafts, hiked, learned camp cheers and more. There were also a lot of fun activities for the adults and family activities. We paintballed, fished, raced remote control cars, mini golfed and shot air rifles. Since the camp is only a few minutes from the Sundance Ski Resort (where Eric asked me to marry him) we snuck away for dessert one night at the Tree Room. It was so funny because they sat us at the same table we were at a little over 10 years ago.
A big thanks to my Mom, Dad and Grandma for making this trip possible! We can't wait for the next one!
A few shots of the rifles. When the instructor was giving us a quick lesson he brought the gun up to his cheek and said and line that was quoted many times through out the rest of the week. "You need to get intimate with the butt of the gun" Thanks Tim! I managed to get all my shots on the target and my brother Andrew won the first place prize for the best shooting. I guess he had a slight advantage being a police officer and all.

It's all about getting intimate with the gun. And you have to shoot it easy. Just like a catheter. Heh heh.
Doesn't intimacy violate the "code" at BYU???? because I am pretty sure you aren't married to the gun! :) Looks like sooooo much fun! I remember the first time I shot a gun - it was awesome! Can't wait to hear more about Randallpalooza! Love ya!
I gotta admit you look pretty bad-ass with that gun in your hand! :)
