Mike and I spent last weekend with my parents in cedar! It was a short visit but we had fun. Mike is crossing off the rooms he has stayed in at their bed & breakfast. He has one more to go, and it just happens to be MY old room. We always have a great time. Good food, lots of games, and a road trip to either Bryce Canyon or Zions.
My personal favorite is Zions which is where we went this time. I've always felt a connection there. We went on a few hikes and stopped when it got to muddy. We also took Mike through the tunnel *Simkins Style* at the top of Zions and he fell right into place. We have this tradition (thanks to my dad) of sticking our head out the window and what was originally a scream like an evil laugh "wah ha ha haaaaaa" has turned into a whole new animal. Siren sounds, "Hey you guys" (goonie style. This was mikes addition), "slow down", , along with just screaming bloody murder into the passing cars. Which usually ends with the slamming of breaks and hysterical laughter and tears down my dads face. If you have never been, its about a mile drive in pitch black aside from the lights of cars going through. Once we reach the end we act unsuspecting in case of a complaint- and mike pretended to be asleep against the window! A true natural! :) My mom has never joined in and she claims it is because she is laughing so hard. I'll accept that answer! :) We ended our day with dinner in the charming little town on the main street and stopped for dessert at Dairy Queen on the way home.
We also went to Kolob on Monday before we left and found a few more muddy hikes. It is such a beautiful area they live in and everything is within 45minutes. (Dad.. where is our group picture?)
My dad had so much fun playing taboo on their trip to CA to see my sister Hailey he bought it for our visit. We had a lot of good laughs especially at my dads expense. I'm grateful for these memories and the pictures my dad takes. The above are a few from our visit!
Thanks for another memorable visit!
