Water

Okay, I know I am a nerd but has anyone seen the reservoirs lately? They are FULL!!! Yesterday Jace and I went for a drive to buy a state park pass and I was so excited to see water coming down the spillway at Deer Creek! Yeah for the rain!!! I'm ready for the warm weather now so we can enjoy all this water!!!

Camping? Do I do that?

So growing up the only times I would go "camping" was girls camp. I remember enjoying these trips, but as a family camping was the cabin and the houseboat (or the lodge at bullfrog.) You could say that camping isn't my thing. So when I convinced Jace that camping at Goblin Valley over Memorial Day would be a great idea, I wasn't really sure what I was getting myself into! We bought a new tent, an air mattress and got together all of our camping supplies... Our plan was to drive down to Goblin Valley on Friday, hike Little Wild Horse canyon on Saturday and come back Sunday afternoon. We were all ready for a nice, warm, relaxing weekend... It rained instead. When I say it rained, I really mean that it rained, the ENTIRE time. The rain started while we were looking for our campsite and continued all through the night and the next day. It really rained the entire time! Despite the cold we had a great time... and I keep bugging Jace to take me back down (we really wanted to hike that canyon!). Unfortunately it really hasn't stopped raining since! But as far as "do I do that?" I'd like to!

Our little campsite


At this point we had decided to go home, that is why the food is in the tent :)
A view from our tent... that is rain, not fog!
We were so cold and wet, but happy to be together!

Jackson Hole!


Last weekend we went to Jackson Hole with Jen, Quint and Jade. We had a blast! While the boys went snowboarding Jen and I had a chance to walk around downtown Jackson. I have to admit it wasn't really what I was expecting. I thought the town would be much bigger than it actually was! My favorite part of the trip was the wildlife tour we took early saturday morning. We got the chance to see elk, sheep, bison, coyotes and lots of moose! We also got to stop in Idaho Falls on our way home and have lunch with the Bonnesen's that live up there. It is always nice to see them! Overall we had a great weekend and were excited to just relax!
