Vacay! Day 5

On Monday, we headed up American Fork Canyon! It's so beautiful up there and we had a really nice time. We bought some music CDs for the kids and they LOVED the music. We listened to them on the way up the canyon and they just wanted to hear the same ones over and over. By the end of the day we all had them stuck in our heads!! On our way up, we got a little lost, but eventually caught up with everyone. After lunch, we went for a hike that ends at a BIG bridge. Taking a break on the trail...
They had little markers along the trail with numbers on them and the kids had a blast looking for the next number!
We found this little "cave" near our picnic site. Ken found some charcoal and the kids were drawing pictures on the rocks with it.
We got back home and rested up, then Ken played some polo with his brothers before heading south for a job he had the next day. It was Round Up Days in Lehi, so we went to "Lehi's Got Talent" in the park that evening. It was pretty difficult without Ken, but Grammy Penny was a great help!
Uncle Nick was so great to wrestle with the kids. Ken HAS to wrestle Taysum at least once a day and Bailey loves it all, too! Uncles are just awesome and Taysum and Bailey have some of the best there are...all 9 of them: Shane, Karl, Paul, Mark, Nick, Chad, Matt, Nick and Tyler!
We got the kids to bed and I got some "relax" time. I watched Some Star Trek (Yes, I'm a Generations Trek-y NERD!) and Ken's mom taught me how to crochet an edge on a blanket. So even though I was missing Ken, I was able to have some much needed down time to myself!
