Ogden East Stake Pioneer Trek

Dave & I served as Ma & Pa on our Stake Trek @ Martins Cove, Wyoming. Above is our way cool family flag design that Cameron created and silk screened for our families' handcart. He also made a flag for each member of our Trek family ! Thanks so much, Cam ! You are amazing !






These pictures pretty much sum up the Trek for us--yes, that is our family a ways ahead of us, where they always were. They were awesome youth who "carried on" in spite of having the slowest Ma & Pa ever ! We felt very blessed to have this 3 day experience of walking over 35 miles and remembering our pioneer ancestors, and were helped to "Finish Strong" (slow, but strong) in so many ways !
