Back in Utah

Some mini adventures we've had in Utah so far....


Grotto Falls





A trip to J Dawgs, of course!!



Lots of hiking



Splash pads to replace the beach. So sad.






We are so happy to have Chick Fil A back!

Spanish Fork Fiesta Days Carnival


Hot summer days call for lots of ice cream

And reading in air conditioned houses







Watermelon eating contest and Ry's work get together.  Logan tried so hard to win, but was beat out by someone 20 years his senior. :)



Using our rock climbing gear in new and innovative ways


Provo Rec Center!

There and Back Again...our 2nd cross country adventure




We spent the night of the 4th in a hotel, and took off early the next morning.  





Day 1: 482 miles, 7.5 hours and 7 states!  







We spent the night in Hershey, PA!  We went to Hershey World and had the best chocolate milkshake in the world!  Then we headed to Gettysburg, soaked in some history, and spent the night in a super sketchy hotel.
Day 2: 50 miles, 1 Hershey World Tour, 5 hours at Gettysburg




We were still so bright eyed at this point...








You can still see bullet holes from the civil war in some of the buildings!




Day 3: 519 miles, 8.5 hours of driving, 23 Amish sightings and the cutest hotel ever in Shipshewana, Indiana.

The treadmill won that round...




Day 4: 446 miles, 6.75 hours, and a gazillion corn fields.


Day 5: 410 miles, 6 hours, and so. much.corn.


Day 6: 504 miles, 7 hours and 40 minutes, a beautiful drive through the rockies and one wonderful, much needed, relaxing evening spent with old friends.






Day 7: 232 miles, 3.5 hours and we made it to Utah!! Thanks to all our wonderful family who unpacked us in record time.  Now we sleep.
