Last Saturday we had the opportunity to attend the sealing of my brother and his wife in the Salt Lake Temple. They were married a year ago in Monticello, Utah and were able to enter and be sealed together for time and all eternity! We are so excited for the decision they made.

Lots of work projects this week, fixing computers, and continuing to slim down our belongings. We also found a storage unit and have started hauling the items we are keeping over there! Its so great to watch our house empty out.

Friday afternoon we hiked up to the Timpanogos Cave National Monument in nearby American Fork Canyon. The kids did amazing for how steep the hike was!

We spent Memorial Day weekend exploring the beautiful Snow Canyon State Park with Jess’ family, visiting a cemetery where she has ancestor’s buried, hiking, exploring, and flying kites! It was perfect.

Sunday the heat kicked in and after a quick stop to meet up with some friends and do a little four wheeling we headed to Zion National Park on Monday evening. We melted. Even plugged in with the A/C running, it was just hot. Sam was comfortable enough working, and Jess took the kids out to explore and work on their Jr. Ranger Badges.

The most perfect evening was spent hiking a small ways up the Virgin River Narrows. The kids absolutely loved it!

We dashed home Thursday afternoon in time to sign the paperwork and officially sell the house! We still can’t believe we did it! Jess also picked up the quilts from the shop and we got them on the beds in the Airstream. So excited! We still have lots to do in the next three weeks before we set out full time and we couldn’t be more excited!

Travel Dates: May 17 – 23, 2014

We finished up last weekend at Fremont Indian State Park by exploring the underground Pit House, visiting nearby Historic Cove Fort, and even taking the kids on a 5 mile bike ride.

Next we headed to Sand Hollow State Park with a beautiful reservoir, red rocks, and fun wading in the water. The kids even convinced us to rent a kayak one evening for a paddle out on the lake.

After a day doing laundry, grocery shopping and playing at the local splash pad while Sam worked we packed up and headed to Snow Canyon State Park to meet Jess’ family for the Memorial Weekend holiday.

Travel Dates: April 26 – May 2, 2014

I feel like we had a bit of a week off. After 2 weeks of intense preparation for our HUGE yard sale, I was able to relax a bunch this last week. We are still making progress on projects, but things feel a bit calmer around here.

We went swimming at the local indoor pool, had an exclusive preview of the new Museum of Natural Curiosity at Thanksgiving Point, I went to Women’s Conference at BYU, the kids and I starting sewing their quilts, and Sam and his dad are making awesome progress on the Airstream beds!
