Cedar City Cousins

This summer like every summer we were able to spend some time with our Cedar City Nieces.They usually come to town for a couple weeks and between the sister in laws we have them stay with each of us for a few days.

 

They arrived, we had to go to the blue park

 

Sleep Over, as well as watching a movie while using the projector. How awesome is that?

Water Babies. We headed to the blue park/splash pad to keep cool and enjoy some sun rays.

 

Chalk time. What and who can we draw? 

Swimming. We headed to Mom's pool for a little cooling off.

As well as working on some synchronize swimming

Another Movie Night

Movie night in our drive way became a huge hit over the summer. Can't wait for next year.

Also it helps when you get to hang out with a great fun family. Thanks D family!!

Welcome Summer!!

Now that school is out, bring on Summer.

First Day of swimming, we headed to Mom's pool for a little cooling off and relaxing under the sun.

Ward Activity

This Saturday as a busy day starting out with giving blood at the stake blood drive. I was bummed because in the end I wasn't able to give blood do to the tech claiming that my heart beat was skipping every so often.

Afore Jeremy gave blood we headed to the pavilion for our ward party. They served pizzas, had blow up water houses and a regular blow up house. The had water games ready to play and face painting.

Here we have a princess

Here we have Darth Mull.

After the ward party we headed to Jack's New School as they were doing an open house. It was so fun walking through his new school and it really got him excited. The count down of back to school begins.

A hike up to Cecret Lake

Jeremy got a hiking bug, so we decided to act on it and go up Little Cottonwood Canyon for a little hike. Little did we know it would turn into about a 5.2 mile hike. We started at the base of the mountain and worked our way up to the lake.

Some mountain shots on the way up the canyon.

 

Starting the trail from Alta.

The wild flowers were gorgeous and the just kept on going.

Poor Abi got tired petty quickly and wanted to go home. We kept on trekking.

Finally we made it to the actual trail head only a mile more to go.

These two were getting their picture taken all day and didn't mind at all as you could see.

Cecret Lake, we finally made it!

After spending some time at the lake which was pretty busy it was now time to head home. After the few miles back and making it to the car we had tired bodies, tired feet and tired everything. We made it home, climbed into the house, showered and had a quite rest of the evening.

 

I think our next hike will be Ensign Peak.
