OXFEST 2011

July 13-18 was my family reunion in Brianhead, Utah. My parents found 2 big cabins that we all shared. We had a grand ole time hanging out for a few days.

This was the first night. If you're an Oxborrow girl you have short legs. We had to laugh when we looked around at each other. Within minutes we all had our legs up.
The next day I went with my mom & dad into Cedar City and saw The Music Man as part of the Shakespeare Festival, even though it's not by Shakespeare. Quite enjoyable.
Biggest source of entertainment for the kids: airsoft guns.
This is my adorable niece Anne.
Lots of game playing was had by all.
This is the big family photo - much too squishy in my opinion but here we are in our cool shirts designed by my brother Marc. (Babe the blue OX.)
The original Oxborrows.
The sisters. I love this pose, focused on Tanya's pregnant belly. We were cracking up.
McKelle was able to come with us. Sadly Jake & Jyson couldn't be there.
We rode the ski lift to the top - check out that elevation!
John rode the trails with my brothers Eric & Aaron & nephew Tosh.
A hug at high elevation.
The kids were fascinated with John's bike - how fast could he go? were those really pedals (pointing to his clipless cleats)? how many gears did he have?
Coming down with my cute nephews Luke & Sam.
The cup corner.
Remember the airsoft guns? The BBs were EVERYWHERE, so my parents held a contest to see who could pick up the most and everyone earned some money.
The M's: Mom (Marilyn), Morgan, Madison, MacKenzi, Maya, McKelle, Misty, Me (Michelle) - missing Mitzi. I guess we should have included Marc and Matt too.
John went back a day early with McKelle, Matt, Eric, & a few bikes.
The kids loved playing with Tosh. They didn't want him to leave.

I love hanging out with my family. Always looking forward to the next gathering...
