Been There...Done That!

Yes, we have been on the road again. We spent the last 5 days taking Thomas around to see the sights of Southern Utah. We started by taking him to Bryce Canyon on Thursday. He took 300 pictures total on Thursday.

Cameron is great at taking pictures of all of us with his long arm shot!

Resting for a minute on our hike to the Emerald Pools at Zions




We did it. We hiked to the top of the Emerald Pools. Thomas really enjoyed Zion's, he said if he would have gone to Zion's then Bryce's he would have been a bit disappointed since there was so much more to see and do at Zion's. The lower picture here is a long horn sheep that we saw in Zion's, a rare sight. He took over 300 pictures at Zion's too. Thomas LOVED 4-wheeling in St. George. We took a family ride to our favorite spot, then changed to our Christmas sweaters, and took our family picture for our Christmas card this year. You will have to wait to see the results, but we about roasted, in 86 degrees and a sweater...what were we thinking????

Courtney took us on "Her Hike" in St. George. We hiked to the top of the red rocks, and sat and over looked the city from "Courtney's Spot". It was a great little hike. It was just relaxing to just sit and enjoy the scenery.
Steve and Cameron at the "Dudley Leavitt" and family memorial in Santa Clara, Ut. It was great to read about the Leavitt Family and see how much Steve and Cameron resemble their ancestors. Steve told alot of stories of his childhood, since he lived in Santa Clara for a while. We all got a few laughs over his stories.
Cameron and Thomas model our Christmas sweaters the night before our pictures, aren't they cute???? I see a sequal to "ELF" in the making!!!
We had such a fabulous time. Thomas had to take the picutes in Las Vegas, my battery died, so I will grab his pictures of touring Las Vegas next week. This Saturday is our family Halloween party and the rival "Pumpkin Carving" contest...stay tuned!
