Schwendiman Family Reunion: July 31-Aug 2

It is definitely a family tradition for us! This year we rented the Squirrel Creek Ranch just outside of Ashton Idaho, on the way to Island Park. It was a lot of fun to see everyone, especially the kids. We did have a pretty good turn out but missed the ones who weren't able to make it this year!
We went a day early and spent the night at the cabin on Henry's. Coco had fun climbing the stairs and exploring new territiory! Ben was able to paddle on the lake and almost got blown away. At one point I was on the deck frantically searching the lake for Ben after I realized the wind had picked up (it was blowing so hard the patio furniture was getting turned over) I was holding Coco and saying "where's daddy" and everytime I said that she would say "ah ohhh" If I wasn't so worried about Ben it would have been pretty funny! He ended up getting to shore and walked back with his board & paddle on his head and bare feet. Crazy guy! Squirrel Creek is really close to the southwest corner of yellowstone and Cave Falls. I went to girls camp just a few miles from her as well. It is a really beautiful area, we were able to hike around Cave Falls and up to Bechler Falls, the trail goes right along the river. It was an easy hike but really cool. We will look forward to getting together next year!
