Suprisingly, I Finished...

So I did another 1/2 marathon a couple weeks ago up in Flagstaff. The run was up in the mountains and really pretty, but it owned me with all the hills! I ran it in 2:09:08....and it's over!!!! Yes!

Oh yeah, that's sexy:)


And as you can see, I was very happy to get that over with!

Southern Utah!

I'm a bit late, but here's our trip to St. George:

We had a picnic and did a little hike up Pine Valley Mountain. It was lots cooler than being in St. George!

Scott & Cameron




(It was a pretty kid-friendly hike and we only went a very short distance of it:)

Cruisin' in style!

We got some bowling in...




And we got to be part of Kate's baby blessing.


Thanks for all the fun fam!

Northern Utah!

We got to visit the Clark Family before Taylor left to the MTC on July 13th. It was a good visit.

Taylor had a cello recital Thursday night.


He got to play at the St. John's Episcopal Church as long as he played prelude for one of their Sunday services.

Here's his student. He did a great job!


Friday night we went to the Russian opera that Mom got to be in, 'Boris Godunov.' Scott's 1st opera ever!




Friday we went hiking up Logan Canyon to see the Temple Fork Sawmill.


Look at the greenery!!! I almost forgot what that looks like:)

Old Ephraim's grave (the largest and last grizzly bear to be in Utah)


Taylor's last weekend before the MTC






Good luck in the MTC and then in Japan TayLOR!!

Colossal Cave

This was pretty fun...we went on a tour of this 'dormant' cave, meaning it didn't look all that cool, but it had some fun history and was fun to explore. Outlaws and Indians were visitors here back in the day:)

The nice tour guide did a great job of taking our pic while we were both looking...



During the Great Depression, the CCC worked here to make trails and put in lights.

Biosphere 2 (Biosphere 1 is the Earth)

So we're trying to do all the things around Tucson because we have a 2/1 discount (for most things). This was one of them.

8 people lived in this for 2 years and grew their own food and everything under controlled environments--pretty wild.




The Ocean

The Rain Forest

The Desert
Pretty cool, but definitely a one-time thing...
