Rich Family Reunion July 2014 McCall, ID

We had another great Rich Family Reunion in McCall, ID this year. It was chalked full of good times and adventures including white water rafting the Salmon river in nearby Riggins, ID, Quad Riding all over beautiful and breathtaking brundage mountain, boating, kayaking and paddle boarding, swimming, biking, eating ice cream and making yummy dinners. Each reunion is such a different experience mostly because my siblings and I are all getting older, have families of our own and our lives are drastically changing  yearly. I'm grateful for the wonderful family I have who all love each other, are there for each other and enjoy spending time together.

The most beautiful, remote camp area on brundage mountain in McCall, ID. right next to a stream where we could swim, canoe and talk around the campfire. The guys had a air soft gun war and there were only minor catastrophes. We rode around and explored the mountain side on quads and got really nice and dirty.

I'm Quarter of a century old! Big 25.

I remember at Christmas time 2013 Josh and I were excitingly talking about future plans for the summer, we had lots of big events including, both our birthdays specifically my 25th, graduation, our Rich family Reunion, and of course our FIFTH wedding anniversary. WOWWEE. We had no idea that this would prove to be one of the most difficult years as a team yet. Fortunately, events that occurred and trials did not lead us apart but we grew stronger together as a couple. I'm happy to say we have made it through a dark storm and the light is in sight. Just when you think the storm will never pass....

My 25th Birthday was on a wed this year, which meant I worked a very busy morning at my internship and got off about 4pm to try and enjoy what I had left of my birthday. Josh and I had a relaxed evening with a nice dinner and enjoyed the weekend coming up playing together around town. Every year birthday's just don't seem as exciting. Who wants to get older anyway?
