Grandparetns Day 2012

This year we went to Mirror Lake and the Provo River Falls for our Grandparents Day adventure.  We had beautiful weather, a fun hike around the lake and got to see parts of the falls we haven't seen before because the water was so low.

 

Ballet

Emery started ballet classes in September and loves it. I think she especially likes dressing up in her leotard, tights and ballet shoes. 

Lake Mary hike

We tried again to hike to Lake Mary a couple of days after Labor Day. This time there were very few people, the weather was perfect and we had the lake to ourselves when we got there. Definitely worth the wait.

Labor Day 2012

Hiked above Brighton ski resort on Labor Day trying to get to Lake Mary but it was very crowded.  So we got this picture and decided to turn around and try again another day.

Moab, Aug 2012

Moab in August is hot, but also less crowded. We didn't see another person on 3 of our hikes. 

The Wash hike-one of our favorites

Millcreek falls hike

Jewel Tibbet Arch hike-first time for this hike and quickly became a favorite.  Felt like we were alone in the world

Jackson turns 6!

Jackson wanted an Angry Bird party for his birthday this year. Luckily there were plenty of ideas on Pinterest. So we made a life size angry birds game, angry bird decorations and had a green pig pinata.  We had so much fun!
