Six Flags

Since our Disneyland passes expired and their prices increased, we decided Six Flags is our theme park now. We had so much fun!

I love these pictures of Scott and kids on this ride. Scott said he was surprised that they allowed a child as small as Adeline on this ride cause he was afraid she would fall out. Thankfully they all came back safe and sound. These pictures are priceless!

Temples - Summer 2018

The last few years we have started a family tradition of visiting temples that are nearby when we go on a road trip. Since we visit my family in Utah every year, I decided that we could check off a lot of temple from our list. We were able to make it to six temples this summer!

Draper, Utah Temple

Oquirrh Mountain, Utah Temple

Jordan River, Utah Temple

Payson, Utah Temple

Yellowstone 2018

I am so happy that Scott was able to come the entire time on our trip to Utah this year. We were able to do so many things this year because we had no baby and I was not pregnant! We hiked around Mesa Falls, hiked to Fairy Falls, went to Playmill Theatre, played at the cabin, drove up to the top of Mount Sawtell and just had fun with family. I LOVED this trip!

Cabin

Gotta love the picnics on the porch.

The kids are really into group hugs lately. It makes my momma heart almost burst.

When you don't have a screen to entertain you, you do puzzles! The kids were so proud of themselves.

Sara came up for a couple of days, but unfortunately had car problems and a pregnancy scare. We wish we could have spent more time with her and the girls, but at least Adeline and Charlotte were able to have fun sleeping in their couch bed together.

The older kids had fun playing in the grass and trying to build a fort.

 

Fairy Falls Hike

By the end of this hike, we were all so jealous of Tim's free ride. The kid is probably close to 30 pounds and between Scott and I, we packed him six or seven miles this day! We were all exhausted by the end-except Tim of coarse!

Tim kept tossing rocks into the water and then clapping for himself. It was adorable!

One of my favorite family pictures!

 

Mount Sawtell

We learned that Peter has a very strong fear of heights as we drove up Mount Sawtell (the mountain directly behind my Grandma's cabin). Here is Grandma Stewart trying to comfort a very terrified Peter.

Tim did not want to stop playing in the water, ha!

Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone

Bison

We generally do not take a lot of pictures of the wildlife because we have been to Yellowstone so much and have gotten a lot of nice pictures. Sometimes we get really lucky though and see some animals really close. We were driving in the north part of the park when we saw herds of bison crossing the road and got some great pictures.
