Packed Summer

Here is the update, in hyperspeed. When Angela's brother Scott came home from his mission, Josh and Amanda came down to see him and spend some time with us too. We went to Las Vegas and Picked up Scott, and then when Scott and Angela's parents went home, the rest of us went to Zion for the day. We hiked the overlook trail and then played in the Pine Creek Waterfall where we built what have been dubbed the pooh castles. (Sorry I don't have many pictures) On a whim we stayed in Springdale and watched Transformers at the Imax, 9x larger (and you better know that when you leave, because they tell you that like 10 times) and unfortunately for Addy, probably 9x louder too. We had a great time with Josh and Amanda.

The next weekend we did work around the house and then stayed Saturday night at Yankee Meadows, a nice break from the heat. The following Friday night we went to Bryce Canyon with my parents. Saturday we rode the Thunder Mountain Bike trail which ended up being pretty intense, and then we hiked the Queen's Garden Trail in Bryce.

Oh how nice

Caught you Austin!

This is Ang heading for a razor ridge with the trail on top and very, very steep hills on the sides.

Cool pictures..but that last one (the poop castle) - where is that one?

Isn't it clear that the poop castle is right next to the King of Town's Castle. The Poopsmith is the ward there.
