Downs Park City Reunion

Last year Jackie and my Dad planned a Downs Family Reunion in Sun Valley and they had such a great time they wanted to do it again this year but this time they decided to do it a little closer for us in Park City. They were all there for about a week but since we were so close we just decided to do some driving back and forth. Saturday we drove up and Toby went golfing with all of the guys and I took the kids with the rest of us who weren't golfing to the rec center there that had the funnest little pool and slide. The kids were in heaven! It was a bit chaotic with so many kids and not enough adults but we managed and had a great time. Then we got all cleaned up and headed to the Alpine Slide. I loved doing that as a kid and teenager so it's super fun to get to take my kids and do the same thing but the price is just plain RIDICULOUS. Makes me so frustrated. So I pay the money and try to just focus on the memories being made. Tate of course was the one kid who was anxious going up the ski lift but once he got going down on the slide with Tob I think he was just fine. I took Kemp down and he just kept saying "this fun mom!" He loved every second. - The next day we drove up after Church for a family bar b que. We had it at the house Jackie rented and it was super nice. It was great seeing Stacie and Lindy and Blake and all their kids. Such a great family. We enjoyed our visit and then when it was time to head home we stopped for a couple pictures in front of the beautiful White barn with the Massive flag. Kids were super cooperative which I always appreciate. We got word of a bad crash down Parley's so we all caravanned back a different direction which was over the top of the mountain down Big cottonwood canyon which felt super weird but turned out great and made for another fun memory. Turned out to be a great Downs Reunion.
