Halsey '07

What does a week full of camping, intertubing, fires, bike rides, fishing, food and swimming mean to you? For us it's Halsey 2007!
Every summer Mom's parents and siblings meet in Halsey, Nebraska, to enjoy an entire week of time together. This year there were 31 1/2 of us altogether.
Cousins Mackenzie, Sarah and Madison

Nick was able to come home for the week of Halsey. It made our week complete!

Lots of people means lots of food

Cousins Sonya (with Baby Reynolds), Sarah and Connie



Intertubing down the Middle Loup River...we did it at least every day!

Even Grandma went down the river with us! What a trooper!

This year the boys set off on a new venture. They drove far into the hills away from the campground and spent the night under the stars. They were freezing and starving when they came home the next morning but they made some good memories.

Thank you, God, for family!
