Timpanogos!!!

Spencer's only desire this summer was to go hiking and my only desire was to visit Timpanogos Cave (well...not my only desire, but a good enough trip to fill the void of Lake Powell this year:() so that is what we did! Daniel was more than willing to get out of this shot.

My favorite parts were the trees and roots growing right out of the rocks! It was amazing!

In case you don't know...that is Max's tough pose. It is frequently mistaken for his brain damage pose, but it's all in the fingers.

Adam had to take advantage of the opportunity to be one with the mountain. Will everyone please pause to give Adam a chance to become one with the universe?

We had to wait a LONG time! Some cool cave pictures...

Can you guess who is having the most fun, who is distracted, who I had to pinch to be in the picture, and who thinks we are all a bunch of "Losers"?

I told you he had a huge head! The rest of us passed through there without any problems- well, Daniel had to duck, but he still made it:)

Well, we made it! Whew! The only casualty: Adam lost an arm, but the other one grew extra long to compensate (it's CLEAR over on my hip). And yes, Daniel, we will still make it to football practice.

This year, Chad and I made a goal to give the kids lots of experiences to help them learn by experience. To grow in culture and mature by being productive and hopefully becoming well-rounded, respectable children.

Well...I guess we will try again next year:)
