There and Back
We’ll we’re back from our trip to Arizona. My mom’s family tries to have a reunion every two years and this was one of those years. For Kellie and I it has been four years since we were last able to attend the reunion so it was great to see everyone again. For those of you who haven’t visited Arizona it is a beautiful place and we have the pictures to prove it.
Most of our time was spent in a small town called Williams located on old Route 66. There is only one main street through the town and day or night you could find people walking the sidewalks, taking in the shops and eating at the restaurants. Williams was a wonderful little place.
Kellie took this great shot!
There were about fifty of us at the reunion, including my mom’s parents who live in South Dakota. While away we visited the Grand Canyon, played games—even saw an old West show put on in the middle of the road.
This cowboy saw Kellie’s glasses and had to wear them for a second.

On one of the days a handful of us fellas went golfing. I chose to simply go along for the ride because I didn’t need the frustration of golf. Years ago I put down the golf clubs because they do nothing but drive me crazy. There are plenty of things in this world that can make me nuts for free so I figure I don’t need to pay for it!
All said and done, we had a wonderful time in Arizona. Whether in Williams, Sedona or Phoenix the whole trip was amazing.

That’s what family reunions should be like – enjoying one another in a beautiful place!
thank you for the update! It looks like a great time, and makes me wish my family did these! We’ve never, ever, had a family reunion! What is up with that???
Never, ever?! I know some families that try to do them once a year, so that really makes never seem like a long time. Maybe you’ll have to start a new habit for Alana’s sake.
it was good to see pictures of your family, Jason. sounds like a great time with them and a beautigul place to relax with family.
