I have to admit that the Holidays really threw me for a loop with my blogging! I'm hoping to get more used to it to be better at it next year. In the mean time I want to highlight a few "happenings" in November and December. Then I can hopefully keep up!
On November 1st, we, and by we I mean Ryan, Me, Zach, Kaitlyn and Caleb (Will was having fun with his grandparents for a special day) headed out to the Valley of Fire. We had such a great time rock climbing at Red Rock that we wanted to try it again. We stopped at the picnic area first and had some hot dogs and goodies and then started on the hike to the Mouse Tank. I carried Caleb in the back pack and Ryan carried his camera bag (which probably weighed more than Caleb!)
Here we are at the top of the Mouse Tank rock.
Zach and Kaitlyn had a good time finding holes to climb in so Ryan could take some fun shots of them peeking out. They thought it was pretty cool to hide in the rocks and Caleb thought it was fun to try eating the sand...
On the way back to the parking lot, we went a different route, off the beaten path, and came across an amazing arch. We decided to climb up and get a few shots on top of it (yes, we're crazy!)
Of course Ryan was able to capture a lot of amazing shots, so I put a collage together of my favorites. Good job Rye!
We had a great time and the kids want to go back soon!

I love valley of fire! Sounds like a lot of fun.
That first shot of Will is to die for! He's a cutie!
We love going out and exploring places, unfortunately it's been years since we've been to Valley of Fire. Maybe we should go there sometime!
I haven't been to the Valley of Fire in years. It is cool seeing more pictures of y'all. Man, they are growing. Has it been that long since we go together? I saw your Christmas letter and noticed the blog address and since I recently started one, I thought I would check out yours. Much more polished than mine. It's fun hearing from you.
