Flake Family Reunion










Another fun Flake family reunion was planned and carried out by Ben and Emy Flake this year. It was held up Ogden canyon at the Environmental center in Liberty, Utah. We spend sometime at a fun park in nearby Huntsville and spend some time canoeing and swimming at Pine View reservoir. Many late nights of games and silliness were enjoyed. Of course we enjoyed Tennessee tacos and many other good meals together. We drove Grandma up to Ogden in our truck with us. It was great to have her out west with us for three years. She is moving back to Tennessee in a few weeks.

 Danielle and Steve and Alexa were able to spend the reunion with us and Lindsey and Dillon flew in to SLC and were able to spend the last day with us. Dawson drove down to SLC and ran the 24th of July 5K run along the Pioneer  Days parade route. He was going to fun the full marathon, but stayed up too late partying with the cousins so he opted for just the 5K. Lindsey was going to run too, but didn't get enough training in.

On the last day as we were cleaning up we found a rattle snake right by the lodge. Ben took care of it with a shovel and Lindsey held it up for a picture. Next year we may be in Tennessee for the reunion.
