Well I survived our first trip of the summer. My side of the family rented a condo at Powder Mountain ski resort for a week. So Wednesday I loaded the car with the kids, one of Cody's friends and the bikes and drove to Ogden. It was a long drive, but imagine the quality time I spent with my kids. We laughed, sang to the newest CD we bought and did a little arguing. But all in all we had a great time.
The weather on top of the world (well not quite the top of the world, but at 8700 feet it sure felt like it) was wonderful! We did alot of biking and one very difficult geo cache hike. If you haven't experienced the geo cache thrill, it's a must. The cache we hiked to was very high and hard, but I figured if my 4 year old nephew could hike it in croc's, then I certainly could make it.
I certainly enjoyed the beautiful things that Heavenly Father created for us; ie, bugs, dried up branches scratching my legs, the most amazing flowers and even the snow.
I then decided that my kids needed some exposure to a different religion so I took them to a Catholic Monestary located in Huntsville, UT. Ok, just imagine 4 boys entering the Church to listen to Monks chant in Latin. Oh how they giggled and laughed until I threatened to leave. They settled down and I'm proud to say they listened to 20 minutes of chanting, reading and singing by 10 Monks. After we left both Cody and his friend (Taylor Polatis) commented on how cool it was to have that experience.
Stay Tuned for the next adventure......when and where is still undecided...:)
