Kamden needed to go to the bathroom while we were at the lake taking family pictures so Kallee came with me to take him. Afterwards they climbed up on a rock and were super adorable. They were just playing and laughing so I took some pictures which I just love!

Cottrell Family Reunion August 2010

WOW! We were all able to get together for a weekend in the Rocky Mountains to go camping together. Kevin and Rebecca did all the planning. I tell you what what a GREAT job they did. It could of never been any better. WE all had a BLAST! They had everything planned out from fishing, hiking to 2 lakes, seeing a water fall, hanging out to visit, and even went to TELLURIDE. They cooked us the BEST food I have ever had when camping. We ate burritoes, blueberrie pancakes, bacon, hamburgers, beans, salad, french bread, chips, hotdogs, and lots of smores. We came home very full but WOW so YUMMY! Thanks a million for a wonderful time we will never forget!

My house in Wyoming

It was really special to be able to take our family to Grandpa and Grandma's house and have it be the house I grew up in my whole life. It brought back so many wonderful memories of my childhood and now I am bringing my own family here. Not much has changed in the little town of Lyman. It still looks the same with a few new stores and buildings but not much. There was also a few new people and what amazed me was how time had made everyone change and grow up. My friends are now married having families of their own. It was so neat to bring my children and husband here to show them where I grew up. Thanks so much Mom and Dad for a wonderful childhood and great memories on our Wyoming vacation!
