JohnandKate+8....+1

This year our stake did a pioneer trek for youth conference.  John and I were asked to be a Ma and Pa for some of the youth in our ward and we excitedly accepted.  After weeks of preparing the time finally came.  We took off Thursday for Riley's Farm and that's where we truely became John and Kate plus eight.

The children of P. DIDDY and P. MIMMY 
And later that day we welcomed PEE WEE DIDDY into the PINSON FAMILY

yes I let the kids name their new baby sister

Jake was showing off his skills to entertain us all.
And therefore Pa Pinson had to join in the fun.
The whole weekend was a lot of fun.  With the last day being AMAZING.  I couldn't believe how well everyone worked together.  N1 really is a family, one that I'm proud to be a part of.

We had to pick an ancestor pioneer to walk in behalf of.  It was so much fun learning about my ancestors and all that they did and sacrificed so that I can have the gospel of Jesus Christ today. 
Eternally grateful.
