Duck Creek Family Reunion

Over Labor Day weekend we headed down to Duck Creek, which is in the mountains above Cedar City, for a Romero Family Reunion. We rented a cabin that sleeps 16 and there were 26 of us (including babies). We had tons of fun just eating, playing games, and just hanging out relaxing! Thanks to my Aunt Leona who planned the whole thing! She even made a "Romero Family Reunion" banner for the front of the cabin!

Shaun and my brother-in-law Kyle headed up to Brianhead to do a little downhill biking. Kyle endoed and hurt his hip so he was done after one run. Some of us headed up to Brianhead later just to hang out and hike around.

Hanging out at Brianhead!

On the way back from brianhead we stopped at this pretty lookout to take some pics!


My brother Patrick was the only one not there out of our whole extended family. He is on his mission in Costa Rica. We didn't want him to miss the family pics so Whitney went and got a cardboard cutout of him. His head ended up being a little smaller than life size but oh well, it was fun having him there anyway!

We played a mean game of horseshoes, the winners won $44 to split. Darren and I took the whole thing. I even had a couple of ringers, I've never even played horseshoes before, but now am a champ!

My grandparents and all their grandkids (including shrunken head flat Patrick)

We had a great time and hope to do it again next year!

Looks like fun. I love the cardboard Patrick. How's it having him home? Crazy! I bet so fun.
