Bennett Family Reunion

YES....we enjoyed another Family Reunion! This time it was with the Bennett side of the family and we spent 4 days in Island Park, ID. Brock and I were in charge of the whole thing and I think it went really smoothly.
We stayed in a campground right next to Island Park Reservoir and soaked up the beauty of the mountains and the lake. My brother Mike brought his boat and my Dad and my brother Marlon brought their wheelers to help us explore our surroundings.
This was the first real "BIG" thing that I've ever planned on my own and it was surprisingly easy and not real stressful! We all had a good time playing with each other, relaxing and enjoying the outdoors!

Taking a beverage break

Our reunion ended on Thursday the 31st and some of our group went home and the rest of us decided to go into Yellowstone and camp. We spent two nights camping in Yellowstone and touring the main sights. It was fun because some of our family had never been through the park.

After Yellowstone my family followed Brock and I home and spent a night in Bozeman. They parked their Rv's out in front of our house. I'm sure our neighbors were worried how long they were going to stay.
What a wonderful week!
