What a day!

Scott and I joined in the fun too!

Hayden's face cracked me up on this-plus he was so intense about the control stick-bring on the speed!
Such pretty flowers, and the smell up there was won-der-ful!
See? Gloves.
She was so cute doing all kinks of back-flips!
Good brother.
The Peruvian chairlift was very high...but it was so pretty. Hope cried a lot up there. I think her ears hurt. You see how she is sitting? I had to "pop" a boobie out to feed her on the way up...on the way down...she just cried.


I kept hearing "This is the best day Mom" all day yesterday. We went up to Snowbird yesterday to do all their "summer activities". It opened at 11...we were there by 10:45 and didn't leave until about 1/2 before it closed (about 7:30). We might have stayed until 8 but there was thunder and lightning in the area, and I don't know about you, but I didn't want to be stuck on the top of some mountain with lightning all around. I am totally afraid of heights, but even I had fun. We did everything-go check out the web-site, it was fun. They had this trampoline you jump on while attached to bungee cords. So, I did it, but I didn't do any special tricks. The kids and even the dude that was working kept trying to get me to. I do NOT succumb to peer pressure!! haha By the end of the day I even did the zip-rider and cackled all the way down. My favorite was the alpine slide. We even managed to take the tram up the mountain, take about a 20 minute hike, and play in some snow. By the time I made it there, Hayden had his socks off his feet and he was using them as mittens! Good times.

I think the kids saying it was the best day ever tells it all. How fun.

This looks like a ball! I'm so glad you had a great time. Mark wants to do the luge -- is that a luge track I see in the picture?

What a fun day. That is a fun slide.

My house--well, my parents house--is about 10 minutes from the mouth of the canyon. Actually, equadistant between both canyons. BEAUTIFUL! I love it.

Did you see the temple quarry's and the church vault's on the way down??

Can't wait to see what's on the schedule for tomorrow!! ;)

We love that place too! I wish you had some pics of you on the tramp/zip line and Scott on the alpine slide. I bet he had is game face on. Glad you had fun.
