Whiting Reunion 2008 - Passport to the Past


Sierra Trigo - beautiful mountain backdrop for the Whiting Homestead. This year's reunion had over 1050 family members signed up to attend. I'm not sure how many actually came - but the website: www.whitinghomestead.com is amazing - and has all kinds of trivia and info and pictures.
Hayden had a great time making new friends and hanging with the teen cousins. We even caught him in the 3 K race! Yea Hayden!










Entering the homestead:


Reuniting with mom's favorite cousins. The Sunday was an inspiring and incredible with mom's cousins speaking to the family during a special meeting, which included Elder Douglas Shumway of the Second Quorum of the Seventy.
This is us with mom's second cousin President Phil Brown, former mission president of Portugual. (Elda's son) He is currently battling cancer.









Here is Kelli and me after we won the auction for a doll made by a cousin.
