stewart falls

sunday hike up stewart falls

ok so this was actually a few weeks ago- but i'm slacking


the weather was perfect for hiking

.
ok so we are about 2 min away from the falls but this was as close to then that we got (after 40 or so min of hiking) but the girls were done...so maybe next year well actually make it.

they looks happy but they were spent by this point

aubrey doesn't hide her feelings very well

this was after we told her we were done and heading back

rylees riding the log...then

the kids REALLY wanted to see me riding the log- i couldn't deny them.

it really was the most beautiful views- and the leaves were perfect.
love the fall

Fall weekend in the Canyon

this weekend was so beautiful that we decided to drive the alpine loop. we started up a.f. canyon and ended at sundance. the leaves were starting to turn red but the aspens were still green and i was a bit sad that they weren't yellow quite yet. so i guess we'll have to make another tip up next weekend.


this picture with the water fall was taken by rylee who was very excited to finally be allowed to use the camera.

the back of timp-breathtaking view

i don't know what to say...

ry wasn't as into it.

again taken by ry (actually this was her very first photo, not bad)

now i added these next photos in, even though they were taken at 4th of july. but with the canyon theme they work.

bridal veil falls

aubrey was REALLY good at frisbee- i was impressed

cute couple i would say!

aw...my little ry.

Snow Fun

Living here in Utah again has been an adjustment for us with the snow. I really truly miss the endless blue sky of Vegas, the 60's, and my car being always clean. But Utah has it's good points as well including our family, some of our best friends, and the mountains!!

We have had a very snowy winter and the best way we have enjoyed it is by taking the girls out and sledding. So we got all bundled up in our warmest snow gear and headed up to the park by the Provo Temple (sorry i should have taken some pictures of the awesome bowl). After a couple times up and down the large hill we realized that we might be alittle over dressed and we started peeling layer by layer until we stopped sweating. Of course there was a lot of snow and allot of people, but we had a blast!

Don't feel bad for Aubrey here. She started the snow ball fight.

It's the Hoover Dam Man!

dad was here last week and we decided to see some of the wonderful views around Vegas (away from the strip) and we ended up at Hoover Dam. it was actually very cool, we took the tour and even the girls had a good time. (interesting facts)....did you know that only96 people died when they built the dam? and that no one is buried alive? also if you rub the feet of this thing with wings (i'm sure it has a name but I can't remember) you will receive good luck....interesting.
