Parrish Canyon Hike

We found a nice trail with lots of wild flowers and a creek.  Mandy came with us.  The trail is not far from her house.  She says we are related to the Parrishes for whom the canyon was named.  We wanted to see some pictographs created by Fremont people.  This was as far as Celeste, Scott and I got because the sometimes cute little creek was a raging river of death.  The trail ahead of us was covered in water.

Mandy kept going and climbed a cliff to get to the rock art.  This is some of the art work.  I got this photo from a hiking web site.  This fall when the area dries out we'll try again.

Happy Birthday Aunt Diane!


We lighted some candles and ate some cake to celebrate your birthday.  We wish we could have seen you in person.  (If this video doesn't work, try copy/pasting this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4GAU9XSPrg)

Guess Where






Even though we've all been sick with colds, we had to get out of the house and do something.  It's nice to get your mind off of feeling yucky.  Celeste enjoyed the dump trucks and museum.  It was amazing to see such a big man-made hole in the ground.

Little Mermaid Video

Celeste loves swimming and our apartment pool is open now.  Yippee!  We've been going almost every day.  Celeste gets especially happy when neighbor kids are swimming at the same time.



We went to the Wheeler Historic Farm for an FHE activity.  Celeste brought along her toy horse.  When we got near the horses she said to her toy, "Look! It's you!"

Celeste likes sitting on the tractors there and pretending to drive.  Scott asked her where she was going on her tractor.  Celeste said, "Idaho".
