Zion National Park....

A couple weeks ago Brian's Dad's and two youngest sisters drove up to our house! Michayla has been hanging out with us ever since but Emilee and Paul were only here for a couple days. While they were here we drove up to Zion's, it's only like a 25 minute drive from our house! We spent the day enjoying the scenery and went on a hike.

We first stopped to feed the Elk...

They have really soft antlers!! It was so weird to feel them...

They also smelled bad!

After the Elk, we went and ate lunch at "Blondie's Diner" it was SO good!
Then we drove all the way through the park to take in all the scenery...
Here are a bunch of Nature shots, it really is beautiful up there!!

Then we drove back down and rode their bus up to our hike, we hiked Weeping Rock, it was so pretty! It was also really easy and perfect for the kids!
Jaxin has become Kernan's little Mom! In fact they went home on Saturday and Kernan is having serious withdrawls!!

Supposedly it takes 1200 years for this water to reach these rocks...

After we hiked back down, we got back on the bus to head to our car. Kernan rode down with his Poppy. We are so glad he came up to our "news" house!! Kernan has been asking for him to come ever since we started moving things into this house!
He fell asleep shortly after this picture! He loves his Poppy!!

And one last picture of the beauty that we live by!!

The scenery pictures are really pretty. It makes me want to go camping. I'm glad Dad and Emi got to go for a few days, they all haven't had a vacation in so long.
