Moab 2010

A little rest on the way!

Just around the bend!

We decided to take a day trip to Moab.  I know, crazy right!  We did try to get a motel but because of the half marathon and fall break, there was nothing available.  So we left in the morning and came back late in the evening.  We knew that Kati would be tired after the hike to Delicate Arch, so we planned to see Dead Horse Point afterwards.  She did great on the hike and it was a great day!

Amazing!!

Look at these bums!  Love this picture because of Robbie's face!

EW!!

No worries!  McKenzie went to YW and they learned how to do Halloween make-up.  Pretty gross but washed right off!

Bryce's

A few weeks ago, we took a day trip to Bryce's.  It was beautiful.  We hiked, had a picnic, and drove Highway 12 and 24, two of the most scenic highways in the U.S.  We thought it was amazing.  Kati loved it at first but hated climbing up out of Bryce's.  It does have a lot of switchbacks and is steep for about .7 miles.  Unfortunately, she slept on most of the drive and woke just in time to see the highway between Price and here.

Homecoming

McKenzie went to Payson's Homecoming last night with a friend of hers from her drama class. She looked amazing!

Bear Lake

What an awesome way to celebrate Labor Day! Great company and fabulous food!

Belts

So a few days ago, James' belt broke but not the at the hole he has to use. So exercising some frugality, he decided it would work for a while. On the way to Bear Lake for the weekend the belt met some further tragedy. In the bathroom at a pit stop it broke all the way. No biggie, we are just going camping. My sisters noticed that James had rolled his a little bit too big pants so as to keep them up. Anna, the smart sister, decided to make him a belt!

Horseback Riding

Monday night we went to Salem to a riding club so that Kati could ride horses. She has horses back home in Germany and really misses riding. McKenzie and Robbie got to ride too. Our friend Trish has the horses and they ride every Monday and Wednesday there. She was nice enough to let us come. It was fun but a different style of riding for Kati.
