Idaho leg of the trip

MACKAY, IDAHO


the BLESSED river


We had the Neilson Family Reunion in Mackay, Idaho where we have been going for like 60 years, starting with Grandma and Grandpa Neilson. This is the first year we have gone without Grandma and that was sad to be missing her, but it was wonderful to be together with family. There are so many pictures and so they are in no particular order


Some of the Men on the blessed river (real river name is Big Lost River)

Scott, Grandpa, Russell, Hy and Dad



Russell, back to camp after the fishing trip


Our "camping" pictures are always so lovely




Long time, no CAMP. This is Aunt Teresa with her hubby and her boys. It has been like 30 years since she came to Mackay. Her family has never been and so this was a very special year.




We did all sorts of fun things like jump rope, and play volleyball.




Here is HY with his baby Graci...not to mention some sweet shades!




The little girls in their makeshift playpen. Ericka, Janie (eating a casco) and Graci

Becca, great blogs about Utah. Looks like it was a super fun time! I am jealous. And your fonts and colors look good too.

looks like so much fun! I can't wait to get back to Utah and some family again! Thanks for the pictures...makes me want to go camping! I haven't been in too long! It is probably a sin how long it has been! :)

The Idaho trip looks like it was really fun. I wish my family did stuff like that now a days. We used to, but not for some time now. Everyone is spreading out so much now. --Lance
