Our family stayed in a hotel in Orem and the kids loved being with cousins.
Snack time before bed.
Cousin time at breakfast
Part of the reunion was hiking to Timpanogos Cave. Timpanogos Cave holds a special place in our heart. My great, great grandpa, Martin Hansen discovered the first cave (named Hansen Cave) and my great grandpa George Heber Hansen discovered Middle Cave. We loved hearing the history and imagining what it would have been like to discover the caves as we walked in our ancestors' footsteps. (Emily, Megan and Tyler)
It was a long hike up.

The kids enjoyed some swimming time with cousins at the hotel pool.
The kids loved making their own rockets and launching them. (Megan and Tyler)
Enjoying a yummy Sunday dinner after church. I love these people so much!
Because I had recently cut my hair, and now looked like Kimberly, both of us was mistaken by our kids as the wrong Mom. It was pretty funny.
After the cousins left we stayed behind and my kids were able to get to know their second cousins. That was pretty cool too.
