Henry's Lake Memorial Weekend

This memorial weekend Chris and I went with his family to Island Park, Idaho. We stayed in a cabin at Henry's Lake. We fished, read, ate yummy food, relaxed, and went to yellowstone national park. We had so much fun! We even got to see a bear, which is very unusual! Thanks Mike and Barb for a fun filled weekend, we're looking forward to next year!


Old Faithful!

Antelope were everywhere

We saw a cinnamon bear eating fresh elk meat! It was so cool how close we were!

This buffalo was right next to our car

Timpanogos Cave

This weekend Chris and I went camping with my sister Janelle and her friend Kirsten up American Fork canyon. Jaclyn and Tyson also came up for the evening. We had so much fun! We made tinfoil dinners and cooked them in the fire and even made microwave popcorn too! We played bolo ball and told scary stories :) Well...not really, but we all had a blast!
In the morning Chris and I decided to hike Timpanogos Cave. For those of you who haven't been it's a three mile hike round trip up a very steep mountain. I'll admit I made Chris pull me up some of the way :) But once you get there the cave is so amazing!! It's very big and you get to go on a tour with a group of people. We had alot of fun and got to see some cool geological formations.

Happy Mother's Day!



























































The past two weekends Chris and I have been very busy! Last Thursday we drove up to Rexburg to see our good friends Brian and Whitney get married! We were also able to visit with Chris' cousin Brannon and his wife Brittney. Then that Friday we drove to Logan to celebrate Chris' dad's birthday, not even 12 hours later we drove back to Provo to met up with our sister-in law Traci!! Needless to say we were in the car alot that weekend! But we had a lot of fun and got to spend time with our friends.
Later in the week the dental office I work for gave us some tickets to a baseball game. Chris and I drove up to salt lake with a coworker of mine and her boyfriend to watch the Salt Lake Bees game. It was alot of fun, they played the Washington Rainers so we weren't too sad when the Bees lost :)
Then this weekend for Mother's day we went back up to Logan to spend time with Chris' parents. We had alot of fun and went on a little hike up to a waterfall and got to visit with some friends we hadn't seen since we've been married! We're so blessed to have friends and family nearby. I just wanted to say happy mother's day to both my moms :) and thanks Barb for being a great mother-in law! And even though I dont live near my mom and didn't get to see her this weekend, I love and appreciate her and everything she does for us too!
So after all this driving the past two weeks I'm ready to stop spending so much time in the car and just stay at home!
