A fun and busy July

 Dad finally catches up to us on vacation and the first morning we head to Angel's Landing in Zion's Canyon.





 Everyone made it to the top--a pretty impressive hike.




 Hathaway made it all the way up and back down with no help.
 We saw lots of lizards to the delight of all the kids.

 We got to visit Grandma Anna (Bryce's grandma) in St. George.


 Bryce's cousin Ephriam and his family were also there and the kids made quick friends with their new-found cousins.


 Celebrating the 4th of July!

 Harrisons and Washburns (Bryce's aunt, uncle and cousin's family)

 Made it to the Grand Canyon.










 We completed 6 miles on the Bright Angel Trail (and it was hot!)

 Drove through Escalante National Park on our way to Bryce Canyon.
 The master trip planner and cool outdoors man!





 Our hotel at Bryce Canyon was right next to a little rodeo they ran every night. The kids had never been so we decided to go and had lots of fun.

 After so many days of hiking, Hathaway needed an extra little break with mom.





 Dad takes the girls to go miniature golfing while Oakley is gone to DC and mom has to work.


 Dad takes the kids on a whale watch!
