Waterfall fun

We have had so much having so much family come visit the past month. We had Grandpa Bingham twice, my nephew Chase and a friend, Grandma and Grandpa Wallace, Uncle Al, Shelley and the girls, and my nephew Justin and his girlfriend Michelle. We've gone to parks, hiked, swam, and then hiked and swam. Last weekend we went on this hike that ended in a waterfall pool where the kids could play. It was spring run off water so it was cold, but still fun to dip feet into.


There was a path that took us up behind the waterfall to more pools and more waterfalls.


You can see Emma scaling the corner holding onto a rope while Kiana kept a tight hold onto Michelle's hand. (All the girls had to hold her hand as much as possible). Shay was loving Justin who carried her and gave her shoulder rides.

Here Steve is scaling a ledge that required a rope to hold on to get around, all while carrying Maddux on his back.

This is a view of the continued waterfall up through an area that looked like the narrows in Zion's. Steve and Emma went further up, but the rest stayed back and played around.

The easy way...

I know this is a little late, but it's too priceless not to show. On Easter Sunday we had a little
Easter egg hunt and while the girls were doing this...

Maddux was doing this...





Why waste time looking for the eggs when you can just claim the prize!!!

Races

Emma has turned into a racer. We ran a race together at her school on Maddux's birthday when my parents were in town for the weekend. Then the next weekend Emma did another triathalon. It's so fun to see her getting better.

The only problem this time with her triathalon is her tire got flat on her bike ride, so she had to go slow and it was harder. By the time she got to the run she had such a bad side ache she had to walk most of the way. She was sad about it, but I cheered her up by telling her it was great she just kept going.
