During this past summer we had a Whitaker Family reunion which started with pictures in Provo after which we all headed down to Moab. I split the summer postings into two postings so that the Whitaker's who have already seen these pictures 100 times, can skip to the next posting for the other part of our summer.
This is a picture of the whole Whitaker Family.

This is in the Fiery Furnace in Moab. Becca leading the way. (Edit by Becca: No, Shawn, that tiny person in the front is SAM, not me :) )
This is in the window arches. That is my sister-in-law behind me. I think she is trying to fly.
While we were in Moab, we went river rafting which was a lot of fun.

Sarah has no idea what lies ahead.
Brenden and I were on one of the duckies the whole time.
Would you believe, Sarah actually fell asleep during part of the rafting ride!
Ethan enjoyed wearing his had backwards. That is his cousin Abbey on the left and his Aunt Marie on the right.
The kids and I enjoying the view.
I think Ethan's favorite part of the Arches was the sand.
This is part of the guided tour of the fiery furnace. Sorry, the pictures aren't exactly in order.
Sarah & Ethan cooling themselves off. That is Abbey on the left.
There we are pointing to the peak where the above picture was taken.
The kids loved the sand dune arches.
So we played the Iron chef game. We split into four teams. Each team had a short time to create three dishes with any food in the lodge, but all the dishes had to feature the secret ingredient-- Jelly Bellies! Becca and Dave were the judges. They did a very good job in judging the food.
Here's Becca and Dave running the game Don't Forget the Lyrics
Nothing like nap time!
On the way back from Moab, some of us stopped at Goblin valley to climb around and play hide and seek.
