van der Horst family reunion- Sun Valley, Idaho


Group photo on Sunday afternoon

Sunday morning before going to church.

We went to Craters of the Moon National Monument and went caving in the lava tubes. It was otherworldly down there.

Feeding a crowd like this is not an easy task.  We just had to do a "Baked Potato Bar" while in Idaho.
Grandpa Celebrated his 75th birthday with the whole family.

Spencer with his horse, Chester.



We took a hike in the beautiful Sawtooth Mountain Range





We played lots of games, including some silly ones like this giant sized, battleship-inspired ping-pong ball game.



We played games all week.

Grant is an early riser.  He talked Grandpa into an early morning fishing trip at the nearby river.

The whole group prior to our bike ride.  We did an 18 mile trail in the mountains.  We were proud of everyone for completing the whole trail, especially little Laurel on the smallest bike. 
The Harriman Trail

More family games- Raingutter Regata.  We made the boat in the middle.

Look out for squirt gun attacks.



Uncle Bret took us for a shooting experience with rifles and pistols.

That's some good shooting.



Hanging out and more fishing on the Big Wood River.
