The Subway

 Hiking the Subway in Zion National Park.

We got lucky and landed a Permit to hike the Subway in Zion National Park, the first weekend in June this year.  My parents were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary this year, so we wanted to do something fun and memorable.  We reserved the St. George Condo and invited the family.  We are so happy that Jim and Sarah came, my Mom and Dad, and that Jim and Sarah's brother and sister in laws joined us on the hike, and our kids.  

Lest we forget, the real reason we were all going to St. George was to go see Weird Al in Las Vegas!!!


ROB HELPED MAKE MY DREAMS COME TRUE, AND SO DID DONNY OSMOND ;)!  























It's a good idea to go with someone who has done it before and to be prepared.  There are two big repels, two or three spring dives into freezing cold water, and a few places where you kinda have to shimmy or make your way down.  I loved it!

Hiking with Friends

 Hiking with Friends is the best. I don't have enough words or time to explain all the goodness that has come to my life through this healthy and positive outlet, but these women are some of the BEST I know!  We always come away feeling revived and better and stronger, ready to take on the world!  Seriously, I feel like I can tackle and help solve the worlds problems, not to mention my own.  All your problems can be solved when you hike or everything seems to comes full circle when we hike with friends!  It's like a symbolic journey!  Come and see! :)

Disneyland Girls Trip

  You know you've always wanted to, and somehow, dreams do come true!  Brett had a work conference in Anaheim, so we thought it was the perfect opportunity to take our girls to Disneyland and California Adventure!  We arrived Monday and stayed at the Great Wolf Lodge.  We enjoyed the flow rider and all the tube rides as a family!  Then it was off to Brett's hotel the next day at the Hilton!  I didn't realize how expensive it would be to buy tickets to Disneyland, but we didn't fly all that way for nothing!  I would say the lines weren't too crowded in the morning. This is a week or two after Utah's spring break.  We got lucky and got right on Peter Pan!  Hannah LOVED the fast train ride, although she almost backed out, but it ended up being the last ride we rode of the day as well!  Some other highlights was "It's a Small World" and Shopping in Toon town!  We didn't have any agenda, so it was surprising to fall into "The Rise of the...

Elder Parry

 It's been over a year since Tanner Adam Parry started his mission, left home, and bravely walked into security to fly across the world to serve the people in the Vitoria Brazil Mission!  It has been a joy to talk to him and to receive updates about the area and people he is serving.  He says the people are like family there.  I think he has especially had some tender mercies meeting kids.  One disabled boy helped him realize other's might have it harder than him physically and are still happy.  Another experience, visiting a school of kids.  They all thought he was famous (or was it his mom) lol.  ;).  He's overcome a lot of challenges that has helped us to grow closer to each other and to our Savior and that has blessed me personally.  As he comes to me or as he represents the Savior it has personally blessed me.   Hopefully we are still relying on Him to help us become the best we can be everyday.  And perhaps, we can c...
