Sometimes I get grumpy and the only way to cure the grumpiness is a good adventure.

We canoed done the Jordan River. It was Joe, Zack, and me, and we went a 3-mile downstream route that took a couple hours. So much fun. (It was in contrast to the disaster trip I had done on this same stretch of river when I was a teenager. We tried tubing, and the river was too slow.)

We made it to Splash Summitt. The kids have wanted to do this all summer, and it took until the last weekend of summer to make it there. It was rainy, but not all that cold. That just meant no lines and we had a great time.

We also went hiking. In the snow. It was a short hike around Teapot Lake and out to Provo Falls, which was perfect for the weather.

I’ve been spending a lot of time with these two cuties as well.
