Last weekend we went on a trek with our church congregation. Overall it was a great experience. The kids especially Kassie did far better then I expected, the weather was rather nice the first day and hot the second but could have been worse and the company was fantastic. A trek if you are wondering is a reenactment of the pioneers who came across our great country pulling all of their belonging in handcarts and eventually settled in the Salt Lake Valley. Our trek was not quite so difficult. It was a two day event and the only things we carried in our handcart was water and our personal items that all fit in buckets.
Oh they look so clean!
Allie rather enjoyed the whole experience in her comfy chariot.
Brock and Papa (my Dad) did a lot of exploring. Brock was ready to go another day or at least go hiking again. He loved it!
Pull kids Pull!
I can't imagine what our pioneers think of us reenacting their adventure. I have a sneaking suspicion that they think we are just CRAZY!
Jason promised Kassie a BIG glass of milk when we got home. Trust me as soon as we got home and walked in the door I was getting Kassie her milk and she wanted a "Big Glass!" Doesn't she just look content!

I think we need "after" pictures of everybody, not just Kassie! : ) Looks like quite an adventure!
What a great experience. I'm sure your kids will never forget it.
I have never been on a trek, you are amazing to take everyone!!!
That looks like the coolest experience! I'd love to do something like that!
What cute pioneers!
What a great memory for all! The kids look like they were enjoying the whole adventure. Now, were these happy pictures all taken on the first day?
