Jaussi Extravaganza

I am not sure if anyone will notice I actually put something on this post, but if you do, here is the REAL Jaussi extravaganza!!   

The Jaussi side of the family wanted to take a trip to Yosemite National Park this year.  After planning it all out, it got downgraded to a weekend trip to Bear Lake, after further budget and time scrutiny the trip got further downgraded to three days at the Barlow's house in Gunnison.  Maybe not the most exciting option, but it turned out to be a total blast.

 Everyone arrived Friday, including Joe all the way from Cache Valley.  We had a lovely Sanpete BBQ turkey dinner in our back yard, and then went to the Manti Pageant.
Saturday we trekked everyone up the mountains to Duck Fork reservoir.  WE ate dutch oven, hiked around the lake, and made and shot air rockets.  We stopped for a traditional dinner at Lishy Lou's Diner in Mayfield on our way home -- smelly and tired, but still having fun!
Sunday everyone came to church with us and then went their separate ways.  It was such a lovely weekend! It was so nice to have everyone around and really interacting.  No fighting broke out, which was amazing!

 Everyone enjoying a good meal after a day in the mountains.

 I love this pic.  The saying is true, and the kids are so cute at the bar!

 Grandpa Clair and Caitlin Clair.  Two peas in a pod.

 The girls chilling...

 The men tinkering...

 Mike is the master of the grill.  Best Sanpete BBQ I ever tasted!

 We love to smash watermelons.  The kids thought it was so fun to just dig into the carnage.
