Family Vacation

For the 4th of July my rented a cabin up Ephraim canyon for the whole family to go camping. We went all the to the top of the mountain, it was pretty windy. In fact, on the 4th it snowed. But, it was beautiful and we had so much fun. We hiked, played, slept, and ate. It was a great adventure.

Here's the cabin, seen from the top of our hike.

What is camping without some S'mores. Notice Jeremy's upper lip. We were using Giant marshmallows, and well, they got all over.

Grandma provided some bubble fun for the grandkids.

Jeremy was his goofy self. He's showing me his walking stick.

Cousin Eve came on a hike with Wes, Jeremy, and myself. We walked to one of the many glaciers that were around us. From there, we yelled down at the cabin to create some echos. Wes was really good at it.

Jeremy's a real trooper. He went on three hikes that day. He konked out in the tent before dinner time.

I think I got a little sun this day. Love you hun.

Christopher was so happy to get down and roam around. Gwen caught up with him and gave him loves. Thanks Gwen. Christopher was also awed by J.L. and Cami's dogs that came with them. He loves, loves, loves them.

The last night was colder and windier, so we crammed as many bodies as we could into the cabin on cots, mattresses, etc.

What a wonderful trip, many memories that will last, I'm sure.

Hanging out at Grandma's

We've had a lot of fun this summer hanging out at my mom's house. The kids can get wet on the trampoline, there is plenty of yard to run around and explore, plus there is always a cousin or two to play with.


Jeremy playing swords.

Mckell looks like her hands are full.

Christopher loves the tramp. He bounces himself and giggles, as long as the big kids aren't jumping too hard that is.

Jeremy loves the tramp for other reasons, to get wet!!!

He's such a big boy!! He likes to do things for himself now too. No help needed, mom.

Christopher has found his love of animals, but especially Grandma's kitty. Watch out, he gives her BIG kisses.
