An order of Harrison with a side of Higley

The Harrisons held their family reunion this year in Ashton, Idaho.  We stayed here and it was awesome.  Nath and I weren't anxious to drive 10 hours within a 24 hour period, so we opted to fly to SLC, then drive to Idaho after a normal night's sleep.  After we got off work, we packed and readied the house and the kitties.  By the time our ride had arrived to pick us up, we were all ready to go and had time to spare at the airport....AND we learned a trick.  You don't need any photo identification to fly from Las Vegas to Salt Lake, apparently.  Fun, eh?  This information went against everything I've known and instructed clients for the past 10 years, but it was sure helpful in our case.  We stayed the night at my parents' house and packed up our Buick rental and headed out the next morning.  Driving 4 hours seemed like a cinch compared to 6, so we had a good time.  We arrived into Ashton that afternoon and found we had to use crazy things like jackets and long pants...it was wonderful! 

Highlights of the trip included:

-Visits to Yellowstone
-Fantastic Mr. Fox (ha ha)
-Air hockey games (Ethan and Andrew beat me...but maybe Aunt Liz wasn't trying as hard as she could have??)
-Hot Tub parties
-Being told by Vince that I shouldn't drag my coat (technically the coat was Matt's, so I guess it made it okay)
-Playing Shoots and Ladders with Drey and Bince (Grey and Vince)...the "game" lasted about 3 minutes...
-(fake) Margarita night

And now, a bunch of pictures:
