Silver Lining: the last of the red rocks

June 6, 2013

the last of the red rocks




Some highlights from the rest of my mini-vacation with my family (read about the magic waterfall here):

+ making a quadruple decker human pyramid

+ Nicko having a breakdown on the hike. He made it 50 yards in.

+ hot tub/ pool antics (the strategy was to stay in the cold unheated pool for as long as you can, and then make a run for the hot tub. And I mean run! Poor Adalyn was running so hard she ran right into the sliding glass door)

+ LOTS of yummy snacks and treats

+ this trip could be subtitled In Which Covey Rediscovers his Muscles. If you know him, you know how true this is ;)

+ and one lowlight - Jason slipped down a rock and his hand landed in a cactus. You would not believe how many cactus needles can lodge themselves in one twelve-year-old hand! I was picking those things out for a long time. I'll spare you the gory (bloody) details, but suffice it to say Jason is really brave. Didn't even cry.

And now another conglomeration of pictures: from instagram, my camera, and various phones. It was fun to get together with my family for a few days in between brothers leaving for missions.











What's been your favorite family vacation?
