This week, Warren and I decided at the last minute to make a quick trip up to Utah and Idaho. Matt stayed behind to go to summer school. Kylie had girls camp this week and Miranda is on a trip with my parents touring the United States. So it was just Warren, Carlin and myself going on this little adventure. We left Sunday for Rexburg, Idaho to meet up with a few of my sisters and their families. On Monday, we went to Yellowstone National Park. The next day, we went to Teton Canyon and hiked Devil's Staircase. It was a 5.4 mile hike. The last half has a lot of switchbacks going up the mountain, thus the name Devil's Staircase. We made it though. The next day we traveled to the Logan, Utah area. We went to the Aquatic center and then camped out in my niece Katie's backyard. We also went to Hyrum lake and had a picnic and let the kids play in the sand and water while we visited. We had a great time catching up with family. It was weird only having one of our children with us, but nice to spend some time alone with Carlin. Here are some pics of our vacation.
We couldn't resist stopping for a pic with Carlin under this sign.
