So, this post is a few months overdue. Over Memorial Weekend we finally took the trailer and went to Zions National Park. Even though we had a few kinks to work out, the trailer was awesome and we had a great time! I love the picture below because I think we look like the Beverly Hillbilly's, all loaded up and ready to go.
The campground was right next to the Virgin River. Connor ended up with strep AGAIN, so this is about as far as he ventured out the first day.
We went on a short walk up the canyon. It is such a beautiful place.
Unfortunately, Connor didn't join us on the first hike, but the boys had fun.
The campground had a pool. Although it was VERY cold, the kids seemed to enjoy it. The scenery was amazing!
After a very EXPENSIVE trip to the doctor, Connor tried to do a little swimming.
Rod even made a quick pool appearance.
The next day, we did a fun hike. Connor even came along. Wesley was so cute. The hike had a lot of drop-offs, so he would not allow Halle out of his sight!
We had a great time hiking and camping with the Jensen's. Nate was such a big help with ALL things relating to the trailer. Sandy was great to have around because she always has such a fun, cheerful attitude!
What a cute little family!!
The last day we were there, Nate and Rod took Wes and Chase on the hike up Angel's Landing. Once again, Wesley was being overprotective and would not allow his brothers' to come. He said he would be too stressed out worrying about them on the drop-offs.
The trails really are STEEP. Notice the chain that you hang on to.
Lucky for Rod, Wes was in great spirits.
I love this picture of Rod and Wesley at the top. The scenery is beautiful, but I especially love how it shows how grown up Wesley is becoming. It is nice for Rod to have someone physically able to help him and also do things that they both enjoy.
Thanks to the Jensens for coming with us on our first big camping adventure with the trailer. It was great to have such good company. I loved having my kids undivided attention and getting to spend time with playing games, cooking smores, and hiking. I hope this is the beginning of many more fun adventures.

Those are some awesome pictures! It looked like you had a great time! I can't wait to see beach pictures next.
What a great trip! I love the outdoors...it reminds me of my childhood. You always go on great trips.
I liked that last shot too of Wesley and his dad. Wow, he is so grown up. It looked like a great trip!
I have never been there so it is great to see pictures. Looks like it was fun.
Looks like lots of fun!! We love Zions too!
