Zions Trip







Well, I think that I have finally recovered from our outing down to southern Utah. We had SO much fun. Jeremy and I agreed that trip was the best time we have had as a family in a long time - it actually felt like a vacation instead of trip. The twins did so many fun things and are still talking about the ho-cabin and when they get to go back and swim in the big pool. They both went to a day camp at the ranch where they went on a horse ride, visited the little petting zoo, went on the zipline twice (it was about 50 feet in the air?), did rock climbing, rode on the atv's with their counselors and went swimming. Jeremy and I got some alone time and went on an ATV tour, played frisbee golf and played paintball while the twins were at camp. We also went swimming as a family a few times. I think one of our favorite things we did was rent a golf cart - the girls loved it and it was pretty fun to have it for the day. This trip made me and Jeremy realize how much we want to do as a family - beyond watching t.v. together - and that we are going to make the effort so that our family spends as much time together doing activites, serving others, making a difference.





These pictures are from our last day at the ho-cabin. Gracie was quite upset that we were going home - this is the first time we have been away from home for an extended period of time and Gracie didn't want to go back to Idaho. They are both growing up so quickly!





Side note: the reason it is called the ho-cabin in courtesy of Whitney - instead of staying at a hotel she decided it was the hocabin.
