Long Live Flaming Gorge

Since Pappa Kurt was a kid the Draper family reunion has been held at Flaming Gorge. All of Matt's family memories are from up there. What a great place to camp with family. The family has become so big with kids and grandkids that it's kind of branched off into mini reunions but we are still able to see cousins, aunts and uncles etc... Flaming Gorge is so beautiful. The green clear water, big fish and vibrant colors are some of the things that makes this place so beautiful.

Mason and Max had a ball on the tube as usual. Mason is "thumbs up" for faster and Max is "no hands". Aunt Meme is just along for the ride.

Mason actually got pretty brave on the ol' tube. Matt whipped them out of the wake and we'd stop to make sure Mase was ok and he's give us a confused look and say "Why are we stoping??" So we'd whip him around some more.

Uncle Paul admiring his mellow - I wonder what he's thinking...

Back at camp with the whole family...

Michael day dreaming after a long day of fishing and playing.

On Saturday we headed to a cave called Brush Creek Cave. It's the deepest cave in Utah. We brought extra flashlights for the journey. The cave is pretty open for the first 200 yards then it tightens down to small passages about the width of your body (when you're not pregnant). Matt, Mason, Paul, Michael and Kyle went on from that point and spent about an hour exploring. Mason was all over it! He was actually leading the way. All the guys were crawling around really slow and Mase, being so small, was able to cruise through the cave. Matt was really impressed with how adventurous Mason was. The boys actually became a little disoriented inside the cave but didn't take long for them to find their way out.
