We had the bi-annual Hurst Family Reunion this last weekend at Blue Mountain Ranch. It was lovely and a fun time was had by all. Aunt Liz, you are amazing for organizing this every time.
Bethany and Katherine of the beautiful hair.
The kids spend almost the entire weekend building forts by the creekbed. It was the cause of much cousin drama but everyone seemed to enjoy it anyway and I think they're all still friends. Here are Chad & Aaron cleaning up their fort before leaving. As you can see, it was quite a chore.
Here is a picture of the Smith family cabin. I even stayed overnight this year instead of retreating to the hotel as I do most years. I am such a trooper!
Miranda and Ireland relaxing after breakfast.
Journey and Bethany after washing about a pound of dirt off of their skin.
Chad, Aaron, Curtis & Drew fishing at Recapture Reservoir. They didn't catch any fish, but they did get a cute little crawdad. Afterwards we nearly drove the van into the water. Next time, Sam is driving them
Amber in the girls' fort. I don't think she left this fort except at bedtime and meals for the entire weekend. You should see the dirt that she collected in her clothes and shoes. It wasn't a pretty sight.

Dirt rocks! What a fun time.
Imagine the memories they are stockpiling in those forts.
Way to trooper it out and sleep in a cabin!
These pictures are beautiful! And it makes Monticello look like a nice place. When we were driving through, it was all road work and mud.
