Beaver, our Grand ol' Beaver

I always look forward to going to Beaver for the 24th of July. It was so good to see all of my siblings (Yes, all 7 of us were able to get together). Plus it was a Baldwin family reunion, so many of my cousins and distant cousins got to catch up .
My sister talked me into running the 5K. I was actually proud of myself for running the entire thing and finishing. I'm a flatlander now and I thought the altitude might get to me. At least that was going to be my excuse if I couldn't make it! So it is officially a White tradition to run the race. We had a good showing this year-My dad, my sister-in-law, Victoria (in the picture below), my sisters, Tiffany and Amy , and myself. I've just got to talk Wes into it for next year.

What would the parade be without the fire engines spraying us at the end to cool us off?
My dad, Wes and I hiked Mt Belknap on Saturday. It is 12,000+ in elevation. Once again, I am a flatlander now. I did make it to the top and wrote my name in the hiking log for posterity's sake.
I thought this picture was so cute of the nephews walking to church with Amy.

Amy is on her way to Mendoza Argentina. I can't believe my little sister is a missionary.
