Visit to Las Vegas and California Oct.19 - 29, 2018

Terri asked us if we could come out to California and help watch the boys when Nathan had his tonsils out. Our first stop was in Las Vegas, NV to see the Rowlands. 
On Saturday we headed over to Gilcrease Orchards to pick pumpkins out of the fields. We also looked at chickens, took a hayride and let the kids run around in the hay maze. We missed out on the apple cider donuts because the line was too long.

First day of Autumn - Our first drive on the Alpine Loop -September 22, 2018

The colors are just beginning to change in the mountains.
We took our first drive on the Alpine loop and it was beautiful.
We plan on driving it again in a few weeks to see how much more the colors have changed.

Griffith Visit - part 3 July 11, 2018

On Wednesday we headed over to Timpanogos Cave National Monument and took the cave tour. We stopped in Sandy and dropped Colin off at the Bell's and picked up Logan.


We hiked 1 1/2 miles up to the cave entrance.


We took a snack break just over halfway to the cave.
