Schenk Family Reunion

    We had our Schenk family reunion in Bancroft, Idaho and it was a blast! I'm just sad I didn't get more pictures of everything that went on.  The highlight was being able to see and visit with our cousin Britten, who was in a terrible accident on his mission in Brazil.  He is doing incredibly but still has a long road ahead of him! Tons of people have asked me if there's anything they can do to help....well some incredible people have put together a 5k August 18 to help raise a little money for some mounting medical bills.  If you're interested go to www.brittensrun.com and sign up!
  Anyway, this little trio had lots of fun getting into all kinds of trouble together!

     One of Idaho's little hidden secrets is Lava Hot Springs! Friday we went to the awesome pool that they have.  We had so much fun with all our Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, and 2nd cousins.  The pool was super crowded but the highlight was when Matt and Steff decided to jump off the 3rd platform! I did it a long time ago and had little desire to do it again.  But I was more than stay behind and document it.

    Saturday Nic was kind enough to take us out on the boat! I tried to get Hudson to ski, but he was not having it! He was already ticked about his life jacket! So I didn't push it.He found his happy spot on Nic's lap pretending to drive the rest of the day.

    This is our cute little cousin Aliyah skiing.

   Kissing cousins!!! Hudson kept trying to kiss Taylee! You can't blame him, she is just so darn cute!! (and they're 2nd cousins...I think.....if she is my counsins daughter what does that make her to Hudson?)

 Aunt Katie brought some homemade bubbles for the little kiddos to play with.....and they loved them!

There were so many fun things that I didn't get on camera like playing volleyball, all of the late night card games, the 4 wheeler gang, all the yummy food, the foot races,  and water fights.  

I am so lucky to be part of such an incredible family!
