Our Amazing Trek Experience!!



Sean & I went on our Stake Pioneer Trek in early June. It was one of the best experiences we both have ever had. It was A LOT of work, but definitely worth every minute and every mile that we treked (we hiked 32 miles in 3 days!!!). Thanks to Sean's calling we were one of four couples in charge of planning our Stake Trek. We owe a HUGE thank you to our kids for putting up with us being at meetings (really long meetings) way too much!!!! Madison gets a lot of credit for a TON of babysitting. We couldn't have done it without her. We were the company leaders of 100 people of the RED company. Sean chose that color on purpose (Go Utes!) It was great to get to know the kids in our company. We thought our company was the best. I loved watching Sean on Trek with the youth. I also decided that I really like Sean in cowboy (pioneer) clothing & a scruffy beard (Now I know why I like to go to Rodeo's ). It was something that I absolutely loved!! I will go on Trek whenever possible. On the next Trek Madison will be old enough to go and in 8 years all three of our girls could possibly go on trek - CRAZY!!! Those are the two treks that I definitely want to go on. Anyway, it was an awesome experience and super fun! Good luck to any of you that get to go on Trek. Call us if you need any Trek supplies.


This is the Before picture of Trek. We left on Thursday morning at 5:30am

This is on Saturday - the AFTER picture. Yikes - kind of a big difference. I actually got natural botox on my lips that last day. My lips were so swollen from sunburn.




One of the good spots for a rest.Sean - my Cowboy!!




One of the most beautiful spots during all of Trek.

Nothing better than a hot cowboy (especially if he is yours and he gets to keep the gear!)
I loved the first sepia toned pic. So cool. I totally wish we could have gone on our trek. Maybe next time?
Glad you made such great memories.
p.s. your lips really did look a little like goldie hawn's! hee hee
