Unpacking

Blake spent Friday and Saturday morning at a rainy scout camp at Camp Steiner. He had fun, but Angela probably had more fun helping him unpack.

Whew! hard work..

Just chillin'

Pioneer Day

This past Friday was Pioneer day, which doesn't seem like a holiday anymore, Lorena had to work and Blake had to use a vacation day to go to scout camp. We had a few moments outside, but that is it because it is soooo hot!! Angela loves the dogs and they love her. They are so kind and gentle with her. That evening Lorena and Angela went with Marci and her family to Grandma Great's house. We took up Cafe Rio and had dinner on her patio. We had a lovely visit watching the sun go down. The plan was to stay and watch fireworks but everyone was just tired so we didn't get to do that part. Angela had a great time playing with Micah and Jarin. She really loves them and asks for them all the time. They always have so much fun together.

Zions Ntl Park

In the first week of July we went to Zions National Park to celebrate Lorena's parents 50th wedding anniversary, and a family reunion. It was so fun to see everyone. We did some amazing hikes and Angela had a blast playing with her cousins and seeing the park in the backpack. We hiked Weeping Rock, where she cried every time water would drip on her; we also hiked the Emerald Pools, but only reached the lower amd middle pools, and the Narrows, where she had fun playing in the river. Then it was back to the lodge and playing on the grass and eating ice cream. Getting her settled down every night was a challenge, she would get extremely tired but still wanted to keep playing. We had a great time.
