Haering Family Reunion

We went to Escalante for Pioneer Day. All of my siblings were able to come. I think it was our first official Haering Reunion. Now that we are all married with growing families! We did a little photo shoot before Bobby and his family headed back to Arizona. This was the best one..

Cute Chris and the backpack baby!

We also were able to help build and ride on their float for the Pioneer Day Parade.

Here is Grandma, Hayley and Brooklynn

The sweet pizza oven Adam made

Their float even won 2nd place for the Family category!

The last day right before we left we went on a hike.

Some of the hikers trying to go in a slot canyon. Roscoe was protecting them!

The hikers and the funny backpack baby. She actually really likes to go in it!

We always have lots of fun in Escalante and Adam and Kristen are great hosts!

Arizona or Bust

Well my brother and his family just recently moved from St. Louis to the Phoenix area. We are so excited to have them 1/2 the distance closer to us! My mom mentioned going to help them move and I thought we should go too! I have never been to Phoenix and it was summer so why not! We stopped half way in Vegas. We stayed at Sam's town off of the strip. They had fun animals that looked very realistic and a cool waterfall. Katelyn was terrified of the baby deer! The girls

The best find in Chandler. The yummiest ice cream in the world!

My good friend Becca from Rick's also lives in San Tan Valley. So I stopped by for a quick visit!

Us and our kids

We went to a yummy resturaunt called San Tan Flat. It had hay on the ceiling.

Bobby, Brooklynn, and Kierra

Dylan and Bryce

After we ate we went outside to the fire pits and roasting marshmallows! Even though it was probably still 90 degrees outside. There was was some Serious roasting going on here!

Hey Batter Batter Batter....Swing

On our way home we made a little detour and stayed at my sister Kristen & Adam's house in Escalante. Kristen made Hayley this yummy cheesecake! Happy 10th birthday Hayley! We had lots of fun helping Bobby and Kierra unpack. We can't wait to see them again. This time it's their turn to come to us. That is still a REALLY long drive with three kids!!
