Zion's National Park, October 19th through 22nd

For UEA weekend we drove to Zion's National Park.  Spencer had to work so he stayed home,  Colton had to work so he stayed in Orem, and of course Coby is in Jordan so he didn't come. If you can believe it our family had never been to Zion's before. I have seen plenty of pictures so I thought it felt like I had been there, but I realized the pictures didn't truly show how beautiful it was!

We went on around 7 hikes. Most of the hikes we did on Friday.  The hikes are absolutely fun and the scenery is beautiful!!

A picture of all of us together.  We took pictures of a couple and then they took one of all of us.  Here was are on a hike to the Narrows.

We ended our hike before the narrows as we didn't have the proper equipment for it.





Here we are at the place where it never stops raining. It is amazing how green and lush everything is there.




And it isn't a vacation if we don't take a picture of a few cars that Matt loves.  What was really funny is we ran into friends of our there, who were also their for UEA weekends.  Fun, FUN!!!!!!!  We also went to a few fun restaurants  that were ma and pa type, boy did they have yummy food.  We stopped and said hi to Colton on our way to Zion's but he was working when we passed Orem on our way back!!!  Heavenly Father has truly created a beautiful world for us to live in!!!  I am so grateful for my many blessings!!!!
