This Beautiful Land We Live In-Memorial Day Weekend



The long weekend, the start of summer vacation (almost) for the kids....yep Memorial Day Weekend. Nat and I have vowed, promised, crossed our hearts and pinkie promised (probably the most sacred of them all) to spend more time with our kids outdoors this summer. They love to hike, camp and bike and we live in a place where there is an abundance of all of those activities. We thought we would start the summer right and we spent some really fun family outdoor time with the kids. Just to make it more fun we had friends along on the excursions. The kids had a ball and we did too. Some fun pics from the weekend.....

On Sunday we went to American Fork Canyon with our friends the McEwans and roasted hot dogs, smores and went hiking. As you can see from the pics, Brooklyn and Savanna were most interested in seeing how many snails they could collect along the way.
On Monday our friends the Meigs invited us to go boating on Utah Lake. This was the first time the girls had been on Utah Lake. They went tubing and had a blast!
