zion...

Tyler and I decided to go to Zion last weekend with Jenn & Adam. I think I was 2 the last time I went, so it's been a while. It was a perfect day though. We packed enough food and water that if we had been stranded for 3 days we would have survived, so we were a little over prepared. We did the Emerald Pools hike, which (though there were about 20 kids under the age of 8 at the top) was pretty difficult at times (or maybe I'm just super out of shape). I've decided that since I will now inevitably be gaining about 30 pounds, I better start hiking and doing more physical activity which prior to this point amounted to zero. I actually love doing outdoor stuff, but unless I have someone else organizing it or some serious motivation I usually never get out to do it. So... I'm using me having a baby as my motivation. Me and Tyler decided we are going on AT LEAST one hike every month, which I plan on sticking to. I think next month will be Red Rock...

Here are some of the pics we took :)

 This is at the top pool. There were a ton of people up there because it was a free day.

Tyler was taking all these pictures of cool tree branches randomly interrupting the sky.

So beautiful.... we're definitely making a return trip.
