It's Fall! Yay!


For a family outing one evening, we went out to Snow Canyon.  The weather has changed in St George so we are spending a lot more time outside while it is GORGEOUS! Tom found us a little hike that we could go on and it was pretty amazing.  Marilyn was a champ and walked almost the whole way! She loved throwing rocks in the water and playing "Follow Follow Daddy".  We brought Maggie and Marilyn was sure to stop and show Maggie every bug and lizard we found along the way.  Then we put Maggie first so she could scare away all the big stuff and all of the sudden we moved a lot faster!




This is the doll house Grammie got Missy for her birthday.  She still shows it to everyone who comes in (and everyone we talk to on Skype).  This is when she made the people "cook dinner" on stools like she does when she helps me make dinner.  So cute! She was so proud of this!


We also had National Park Day, and we went up to Zion.  It was so pretty up there! It has been a while since we have gone during high season so it was pretty cool to see all the different kinds of people that were visiting.  We heard a lot of different languages and a lot of people heard Marilyn's little language. Several people were chuckling on the bus on the way up and back down the canyon when she was singing at the top of her lungs "Wheels On The Bus".  She was enthusiastic!

I would like to warn you, she looks ENORMOUS in this next picture, so don't fall over or anything.




Mar Mar felt it was of the utmost importance to show the big rocks (or as she calls them "Far Far Rocks) at Zion her painted toenails!



It has been such a fun last few weeks!
