Being busy is just a part of summer I have decided. We only get so much good weather that you have to do as much as you can before it snows. The 24th of July is Bancroft's biggest day of the year. Val got asked to pull a float, as well as sing at the Chesterfield townsite. We took the pontoon boat out on the lake to cool off inbetween.
On Sunday we took a long car ride to southern Utah for the Skidmore reunion. We spent the next day hiking in Zion's National Park. Its hard to post all the fun pics from a trip, so I picked a few of my favorite. Jack was a trooper on the hikes. Val took him up the Narrows where they lived on Chex Mix for four hours.
What can I say?
I was amazed at all the beauty in this place! I was able to hike the Narrows, Weeping Rock, and the Emerald Pool hikes. Val did the Angel's Landing hike that is a rigorous 2.5 miles up-very steep. Not for me, I stayed behind and helped tie quilts.
It was a fun trip, glad we went, but also glad to be home. (No scorpions, rattlesnakes, or desert beetles to get into your bed!)
Thursday-Val was in charge of the ward fair booth for the day. We went over to Grace to visit and let Jack see the animals. He loved it!
We took the pontoon boat out again, for mutual this time. This was quite a load headed for the rope swing.
Gotta love this cute little guy!
My little warrior.
Jack loves the park. He comes down the slide laughing everytime.
