The tough part of a weekend getaway like this is sorting through all the amazing pictures! 2 weeks ago, we decided to take one last hiking trip before winter, and go to the Escalante/Bryce Canyon area. I decided Bryce was my top spot as the most beautiful landscape in Utah! Really, I wish I could …

2013 Updates for Fall
We grew a garden this year. But about the only thing that produces was our zucchini plant! We did get lots of zucchini, and if we forgot it for a second, they turned massive! We also went with the Roskelley side of the family to a demolition derby. Some hiking at Bridal Veil as well …
California Vacation
We spent 1 week in California visiting with my family. Tim (my brother, and his family) Corey (my brother and his family), Sarah, my sister and her two kids (Trevor was working) my mom and step-dad, and my Grandma Farrell! We spent an hour or so on Balboa Island- mostly because I wanted to find …
Cornbelly’s of Utah
We had a fun (although COLD) night at Cornbelly’s on Friday night! It was actually our first time. We brought one friend of Erica’s, and the best little 4 year old around- Michael! He had fun jumping on the “big pillow”. The older kids had fun in the haunted houses. And none of us could …
Bryce Canyon Race and Hiking
A few months ago, Eliece and I decided to sign up for a half marathon in Bryce Canyon. We heard it was a gorgeous race- plus it was a 2000 foot descent (bonus), and I’ve been wanting to run a race that we got to travel for! Unfortunately, deciding so late, there were very few …
Alpine Sliding Rock with Kids
We tried to go to Alpine Sliding Rock last weekend, when we were stopped at the gate to the trail by a cop. He told us we couldn’t slide on the rock that day because they were filming a movie! He also said there was someone “very famous” up at the waterfall, and hopefully they …
Rounding Up Round Up
I have this problem with races. I’m not fast. The problem actually is, I want to be fast, but I don’t. Today, my sister and I ran our cities 10k race. After about 1.5 miles, I felt like she was going slower to keep pace with me, and I told her to go …
Lehi Round Up Rodeo
Every June, Lehi decides to put on the best Rodeo on this side of the Mississippi! We love going, listening to the loud music, and watching the crazy cowboys take the ride of their lives. “Bucking”, whether it’s on horses or bulls, of course is our favorite event. Honestly, each year when I watch, I …
It’s Zombie Time
We had the opportunity to race last Saturday night in the Zombie Chase! The boys were excited! We drove 45 minutes out to the middle of nowhere (Eurkea, UT) and headed into a ghost town. The race started on the side of a mountain, where we climbed into some empty train cars and waited …
