This past Saturday, the weather was supposed to be phenomenal, so I thought it would be fun to go out on a little hike, or go see the water falls up Provo Canyon. So we did just that. Halle was a bit of a pill at first. She was so cranky and ornery, but by the time we were about done, we finally got some smiles out of that little lady.
After walking the trail for a minute, we made it to the falls, and then of course, Damon wanted nothing more than to hike up to the top... Halle was having none of that, throwing yet another tantrum, so Damon and Joe got to do the hike without us girlies. If you look very closely, you can see the rugged boys on the side of the waterfall.
And this is what PrInCeSs Halle looked like down below as I tried, unsuccessfully, to convince her that we were having fun! (Check out that tear rolling down her cheek!)
As Joe and Damon hiked back down the mountain, Halle and I walked up a small hill and met them. We "tried" to pose the kids on the rocks and get some good pictures... This is as good as it gets people! Joe was in the background throwing leaves in the air to make it look like they were falling in motion on the kiddo's... but none of those pics are the greatest darn it all!
After our small hikes, we walked back along the trail which was to lead us to our truck... along the way we all played and wrestled in the leaves, and I am happy to say that Joe finally got Hal-Bal happy and hyper!
And now I would just like to announce, that ornery or not, I by far have the world's cutest kids. The End!
This picture was after we parked the 4-wheelers, and took a look at the GPS getting started on our trek through the lush Mountains.
Playing follow the leader as we started on our journey...
Just a little example of what we were hiking through to get to this much desired place...
And at the Pot Farm, Joe had a blast pushing down dead trees.
Us posing with the water pipe that is still up there. It was amazing to see all of the things the men had taken up to the mountain to grow the Marijuanna. There were hoses and sprinklers and pipe. There were many huge areas where trees had been completely whacked out leaving plenty of room for 'Pot growing' to happen... (don't mind how utterly attractive we all look after hiking, falling, sweating, and being scratched during our hike).
This must be a hut or where someone stayed as they were tending to their precious Marijuanna plants!
In case you can't see them... it's just the D-Train and Hal hiding....
Nothing to be scared of here!
We had some stuff to do up in Salt Lake last Friday, so once we were done we figured why not go check out the Zoo. I will tell you why not.... Cause the Zoo still charges full price even if they only have half of their animals out! Oh well, we still had a fun time and the kids loved running around. These days I can't get the kids to stand good together for 2 seconds so I can get a decent picture of them, so don't mind the silly pictures....

And here are the long horned Goats.
