Heaven is...Our Awesome Tenney Reunion

 Thanks to Jami and Tim and their family...we had an AMAZING family reunion this year.  We usually have our reunions out at the ranch but one of the biggest downfalls to that is that people find excuses not to be there the entire time.  So Jami had a great idea to venture out and try a new location.  We ended up going to Brian Head, Utah to the SML Resort.  The place was seriously breathtaking with lots for the kids to do.  

We left a day early and stayed in Cedar City with Brandon's sister Michelle's family in their new BEAUTIFUL home!! 

 Love my kiddos!!
 My beautiful girls!

 Our families(minus emily and myself)

Since we had stayed there the night before the reunion started and due to all the construction that everyone else ran into, we were the first ones up to the Resort.
Love my hubby!!

The first night we were there we each had to perform a lip-sync song.  Seriously the funniest stuff ever!! 
 These three wore their wives pants and performed to the song 'Tight Pants'
 Jody and Chantel and their girls performed to Milli Vanilli's 'Blame it on the Rain'
 Randy & Cynthia's family did 'What does the Fox Say'
 Meet Jacob Beiber...hahahaha

One of the highlights of the reunion was river rafting.  Brandon and I were in the front of the raft and i was dripping from head to toe!  Seriously the funnest!!  Tristen got thrown from their raft and that was quite nerve racking to watch:)   We had a tender mercy on the way to river rafting...about a mile from the turn off our car started sounding funny and we had a really bad flat tire.  We had been on the freeway going 85 prior to this and it could've been disastrous!!

 Our fam...morgon and paul were already in the car since they were freezing and the baby girls didn't get to go.
 These beauties went with the 2nd group...Maryssa, Emma, Tori, Maryah, and Brooklyn

Another highlight of the trip was renting the Cedar City Aquatic Center.  We had it for 2 hours all to ourselves.  The kids LOVED it...oh and so did the adults...well except for my mom who ended up having the most embarrassing moment of her life.
