Pioneer Trek 2010

Brooke and I had the privilege of being a Ma & Pa for the stake pioneer trek this year. It was extremely difficult, but fun and rewarding as well. This is our family.
This is our mascot Derrick.
This is our group pulling and pushing the handcart up Testimony Hill aka The Widow Maker.

The girls were left to pull/push the handcart for approximately 2 miles up and down hills. Brooke was there with us helping.
The boys were sworn in to The Mormon Battalion.
A mob came and threatened us, and tried to take our lunches.
This was actually before we started the Trek, unaware of what was to come. It was definitely a faith building experience.
This was after the Trek was done. Fun, games, and relaxation. Some cool people we know rigged up this slip-n-slide with a couple of tarps and some water.

Damon did the trek earlier. He said it was so hard. Looks like you guys survived though. Hope we can see you soon.
