February St. George Trip

Snow Canyon (the first day)

Our first day in St. George we went over to Snow Canyon because Logan was anxious to do some hiking. Little did we know he would turn out to be such an awesome hiker. He hiked the whole weekend long since Chase has now taken over the backpack. It took some convincing at first to let Chase use "Logan's backpack" but when he realized he got to hike and walk with mom he was ok with the idea. Here are a few pictures of Snow Canyon. Playing in the rocks. Up like a bug. Cute Chase. Mom and Chase in an arch. Mom and Logan in an arch. Dad and his boys.

















Bryce Canyon (the second day)


We made the long drive up to Bryce Canyon on Saturday because neither Rich nor I had seen it in the snow. We also made good use of the driving time and planned it around nap time. The only way to get the boys to nap was to drive since sleeping was the last thing either of them wanted to do in the motel room even at night time. Needless to say we didn't get much sleep on our trip but we still had fun. Bryce Canyon in the snow was absolutely gorgeous! We had so much fun hiking the Navajo Loop trail. The snow made for an interesting challenge but our little hiker didn't seem to mind. In fact Logan got a big kick out of pulling mommy down the trail while mommy tried to make sure both of us stayed on our feet. It was quite comical. Here are some of the beautiful pictures. Beautiful Bryce Canyon in the snow. Mommy and Logan hiking in the snow. Mommy and Logan venturing down the canyon. Logan showing us how much fun we are having. Chase in the snow. Daddy and the boys in the canyon. The beautiful canyon again.
