A Day in Zion! Day 9!

-

Day 9: On Wednesday morning we woke up early in our hotel refreshed and ready to hike. We ate hurried and ate breakfast and got into the car ready for an adventure in Zion's National Park. Our hotel was about a 30 minute drive to the national ark and we were so excited. We were able to witness another incredible sunrise as we drove and the scenery was gorgeous. I couldn't believe my eyes. Another plus was the fact that we were able to get into the park free of cost because of my brother's national park pass. People from all over the country were huddled into this area of natural wonder. In total we counted 26 different license plates😲We even saw HAWAII! Here is the full list :)

*Arizona 

*Arkansas

*California

*Colorado 

*Florida

*Georgia

*Hawaii

*Idaho

*Kansas

*Kentucky

*Massachusetts

*Michigan

*Minnesota

*Montana

*Nebraska

*Nevada

*New Mexico

*New York

*Oregon 

*Texas

*Utah

*Washington

*Wisconsin

*Wyoming

As you can see, we saw so many different license plates within 2 parking lots! :0  The whole day we hiked on various fun trails! We got to see so much wildlife including deer up close. I was so amazed by the beauty of all of the nature and mountains. After a long day of adventure in Zion's National Park we decided it was time to go. We decided that we wanted to go to Dinosaur Junction in nearby St. George. We had just arrived when it started to rain :/ I was ticked. So we didn't go. Then we decided to go get dinner at Pizza Pie Cafe. We had been to this one before and we weren't surprised when we found out it was PERMANENTLY closed. We now had to adjust our plans once again. Then an incredible thing happened. I heard the sweet sound of the GPS say "starting route to Chuck-a-rama buffet". I WAS LIKE WHAAAAAAAT!? YAYAYYAYAY! The food was great and was just what I needed that day. I slept sweet and sound that night.

Catching Up! My Summer Vacation So Far!

 It has been so long since I have written on my blog!!! I have so much to catch up on here! On the last day of school (which was way back on May 27th) My family and I got together with the Armstrongs and we had a last day of School/ Glow party in the church gym! We played around on scooters and with glow sticks and we also presented a couple of projects we had been working on throughout the year. We've gone to Roaring Springs several times (Twice when my mom was out of town on a sisters weekend in Utah. She got to see Les Miserables at a really nice theater. I was so extremely jealous.) I got to see my friend Lydia there quite a bit. Britton overcame his fears and went on both drop slides! Honestly if that was me, I probably would have thrown up or passed out.  Maybe I'm being dramatic but watching him go down......... *holds stomach in place* While my mom was in Utah seeing my favorite Broadway music on stage....I was doing yard work in my backyard listening to the movie vers...

Happy Birthday Dad! These past few weeks have been full of fun festivities as we have celebrated my dad's 40th birthday. We had an epic surprise party for him, bringing almost all of his family up discreetly . He already knew that 2 of his sisters were coming and so we hung out with them for the first day and then on Friday the 13th we sent him to Costco with Cari. The party was soon to begin. Lori, her kids, my mom, me, and my brothers started setting up the party. Then at about 3:30 guests started to arrive. My grandma and grandpa Wheeler, my great-grandma  Janice  my uncle Jeff, and my cousin Grayson all traveled from Utah to celebrate the occasion. Once they all arrived we started to divide and conquer as we finished decorating and preparing for the party. We decided to put my grandma Janice on the front couch with a Davy-Crocket Coonskin hat and a massive green party hat on top of her head, and had her pose with a stone expression while the rest of us hid behind a wall.
