Trip to Moab

We had a fabulous trip to Moab with Brenda and Steve. They are so much fun and kept me laughing the entire trip.

Of course, I love doing photography on these scenic outings. I haven't got many of the photos done yet, but here are a couple of the first ones.



The first thing we did when we got there was hike in Park Avenue. Steve said that this was one of his favorite parts of the trips because of the majesty there. He is right, it is majestic for sure.

Then on Monday night, Greg and I went for a drive just after a big rainstorm had ended. The clouds were very thick overhead. Right at sundown, a little area of clouds broke up and the most beautiful, golden light came out and hit on the landforms. We happened to be at balanced rock right then and I was able to get some photos that I think I will print for my home.

Harlee Came to Visit

It was such a joy having Harlee visit us last weekend. She just gets cuter every day. Too bad she didn't like the bike ride much.

Heather always puts a couple of little pony tails on the top of her head. At night, when the pony tails come out, her hair is so funny. She has a lot of hair. This photo is when she woke up on Saturday morning. I sure hope we get to have her visit us again soon. By the time she comes again we should be boating. I hope she likes the boat more than she liked the bikes.

For Jaden

Jaden,

Do you remember these animals from our zoo trip yesterday? It sure was fun going with you. Your brothers liked it too.

We are crazy

Since we have been complaining about our long winter, we are crazy for traveling to winter on a beautiful spring day. But it was fun.

Greg and I have made it a tradition to go to Teton Park when the roads are plowed in the spring to go on a bike ride before the crowds start visiting the park. This year we talked the family into joining us. It was quite the effort getting all the kids and equipment there.

Everyone gets buckled in....

The scenery is beautiful as we ride.

Snack Time

73 Degrees!!!!

Do you think this means that winter is over-----probably not!! But it sure feels good to get out and work in the yard. I found these in my flowerbeds today. It almost takes a microscope to see them, but at least there is a little color other than gray and white.

Hope

There is nothing like a nice spring day to give a person a positive outlook. We needed a day like today.

I hope my neighbor doesn't mind, but I had to get a couple of photos of a taste of spring from their yard.

Chocolate Bread

Jaden was shopping with me yesterday. He was sitting in the cart at Sam's Club while I was looking at bread to buy. I chose a loaf of whole wheat bread. He said, "Grandma, why are you buying chocolate bread?"

I thought it was cute. I guess if brown milk is chocolate milk, then brown bread is chocolate bread......makes sense to me.
