A Bunch O' Blanchards

The annual Blanchard Family Bonanza was held in Moab on the 26-29th of April.  We packed those few days with much food, laughter, playing, hiking, eating, sleeping, eating, swimming, biking, rock-throwing, eating, reading and eating.  Below you'll find a few pieces of photographic evidence of our fun-filled weekend getaway.  (I promise this is only a few of the many, many, many I had to choose from!)

For our branch's Relief Society Anniversary Activity we decided to create a video showing all the sisters sharing their testimonies about this wonderful organization.  A lot of time went into setting up appointments and filming interviews and editing the video, and while it's not a professional production by any stretch of the imagination, I think it turned out pretty nice.  And most importantly, the sisters loved it.

P.S. From Virginia

Just got a few pics from Victoria to prove that I actually was there and did interact with her daughters more than from behind the camera only:



Remember how Katie just isn't into posing
for photos?  This was as good as we got.  :)
