Calf Creek Falls September 2012

This last weekend we drove down South to Escalante and hiked to Calf Creek Falls.  We went with our friends, The Okerlunds, and stayed in a little cabin.  The hike was about 6 miles roundtrip and the kids did great!  The weather was great too and the fall leaves were amazing.

This picture of Jackson is my FAVORITE!  I totally caught him gazing out the window at the pretty fall leaves.

The temperature at the falls was much cooler than while we were hiking.  The kids played in the water and then they were freezing cold after.  It was a gorgeous spot though.


I can't get over how fun Boston is to have.  Can't picture life without the little stinker!






Cannon and Jackson had lots of fun getting wet and throwing sand at the wall.

Best buds!

Can we please freeze this moment and have them act this nicely to each other all the time.

Me and my little redhead.  London always says, "Redheadeds are the best!  I want a redheaded when I grow up!"

Family pic!

Silly faces!

Since London started dance class, she is quite the little poser.

Boston was pretty content on the hike back.  Finally, I realized he had gotten a hold of my sunglasses.  There is no hope for them now.

Beautiful scenery

The RV park where we stayed had these little cabins.  Ours is the farthest one on the right.  The grassy field was nice for the kids to run around on.  There was also a playground and a pool!


Then we stopped at Rock Park--or something like that.  Just a bunch of big boulders everywhere.



We stopped at Fish Lake and had lunch before heading home on Sunday.  The leaves against the blue sky were so pretty.

Grand Tetons Nye Reunion June 2012

Oh boy, my second trip to the Tetons.  I don't remember much from last year.  I didn't want to look at the camera, but everyone else did.
 My sister and brother sure know how to smile.

 I would rather just look at my dada.




We finally made it to our campsite.  I decided to do a little sweeping to help out my mom.
 See my bed! I cried every night for a long time.  I stayed up later than anyone else most of the nights.  I am a big boy!

We went on hike around String Lake.  I was tired of the backpack so my Uncle Dave carried me.
 My sissy with cousin Conner.  He is going on a mission!
 And more pictures!  I just wanna hike!


 Stop squeezing me bro-bro!
 Ahhh, safely in mommy's arms again.

Why does everyone look at the camera?  I just like looking at my daddy!


I was getting a little tired of all the hiking and mosquitos.  Can we please go back to the campsite?

 Ah yes. Home sweet home.  Can you see me?  This was my favorite thing to do.
 We went swimming at the Jackson Hole rec center.  All that swimming made me hungry!




 Do not bug me while I am eating this apple.  It takes a lot of concentration when you only have 8 teeth!

 Mmm, let's see what this chip tastes like.
 More please!


 My favorite spot to be was in the driver seat of the van.  I could stay there all day!
 Then I went to the Jackson Hole shootout with all my cousins.
 Me and my cousin Lei Lei on our daddy's shoulders.  She thinks she knows everything just cause she is a couple months older than me.  
 Jackson and London wanted a picture with the cowboy.  
 Hey!! Put me back on daddy's shoulders!  I gotta show Lei Lei how it's done!
 I finally decided to look at the camera.  This elk is soft!
 My daddy wanted me to look at the camera, but he let me pet this bear, I just wanted to stare at it.

The next day we went to Yellowstone Lake.  I had fun playing in the sand.
 I did not want to touch the slimy frog, but my sissy did!  She is brave!
 Here is my bro-bro trying to catch another slimy frog.

 My daddy takes good pictures.
 There were so many mosquitos, I stayed in the car with mommy while daddy and La-la went on a little hike.

What's a camping trip without someone getting their hands burned.  Too bad it had to be me.
 Here we are on the last day! I am ready to go home!
