hiking up a waterfall

It has been a super fun last few days! I had to work on Memorial Day, had that very, very interesting trip to the dentist on Tuesday, and then we had family come to visit! Emily, Wayne, and their 4 kids came to UT as part of their vacation and we were so excited to see them. Tuesday night we had oh-so-delicious J-Dawgs, went rollie pollie hunting with the kids, and played games after they had gone to bed. Wednesday we had a picnic in the park and then hiked up Bridal Veil Falls. I couldn't believe that I hadn't gone up there yet and I've been living in UT for so long! It was absolutely beautiful. We managed to hike to the top... which meant climbing parts of the actual waterfall and getting really wet. It was awesome! The kids were such troopers too - didn't even complain. We got home, showered, and went and saw a movie at the dollar theater - the Dr. Suess one about not chopping down trees. I can't remember the name of it at the moment...

After the movie the kiddos came over to our apartment and we had a slumber party complete with cake, ice-cream, and Astro Boy. They are seriously adorable kids! It was great to meet little Lizzy - she's already 2 months old.

Addy and Paige loved having Brian take them down by the river to look for butterflies


Chris went on the hunt too

Addy thought that putting the butterfly in the dorito bag was a good idea...



Brian decided that he wanted to get in the waterfall. Reminded me of this experience.

At the top!



I love these kids!

  1. Thank you Rachael for posting the pictures. We loved looking at them. Thanks for taking the kids to the top of the waterfall. I was bummed Lizzy and I couldn't make the hike. The kids had so much fun visiting.
