Hunsaker Family Reunion 2015


The 2015 Jesse and Diane Hunsaker family reunion was based in Alpine. The theme was "We are all on the same team" and "Make it to the Finish Line." 

Day 1
  • Games for everyone in the backyard
  • Family Pictures
  • Outdoor movie and sleepover in grandpa's backyard

Squirt Guns and bubbles were a big hit.




One of the activities I organized was having each grandchild take a square on the driveway to write a  sidewalk chalk note to Grandma and Grandpa.



Grandma and Grandpa were blindfolded while we brought them outside, and then we had them take off the blindfolds to see the finished driveway.

Day 2 (Pioneer Day)

  • Hike in Alpine
  • Visit to Daughters of the Utah Pioneers Museum to see the Abraham Hunsaker piano
  • BBQ and Smores
  • Fireworks

Grandma made shirts for everyone. Each person wore the number in which they joined the Hunsaker "team."







Day 3
  • Races (Half marathon, 10K, 5K, and kids race)
  • Movie Theater to watch Inside Out
  • Hanging out time
Kyle ran the half marathon with G and G, Matt, Heather, and Holly. Jason ran the kids race.

Levi loved all the attention he received at the reunion. He was perfectly happy being passed around from person to person. He also slept like a champ in the pack-n-play. I loved seeing all the growing grandkids and talking with my sisters.


Day 4
  • Church
  • Dinner
  • Family Fireside
Grandma and Grandpa shared some stories from our pioneer ancestry. They also shared recent miracles in their own lives. I love how they remember to teach their grandchildren about Heavenly Father when we are all together. Grandma and Grandpa did a great job planning this reunion. I am grateful for how they help keep our family ties strong.
