And Even More Summer Fun!

Josh and I just went on a Wilde Adventure to Southern Utah! We went to Zion's and St. George this past week and had so much fun! We hiked the Subway in Zion which took us a lot longer than we expected, but it was really fun! The hike took us about 7 hours to complete. It was the hike in and the hike out of the subway that killed us though. The rest of it was great! I don't have any of the cool pictures from it on my camera, they are all on Josh's. So I will have to post them later ;) The second day we did Key Hole in Zion and it was probably my favorite thing we did! It was basically all canyoneering which requires you to repell down in between the rocks and there were lots of little bodies of water that we had to repell down into, which definitely helped with the heat. The last day we were there we just went swimming at the hotel and went to the Temple. Then we got to go see Tarzan at Tuacahn! Way fun! We did have a couple of unfortunate events happen however. First off Josh got a speeding ticket for no reason at all. We weren't even worried when we saw flashing lights behind us because we weren't doing anything wrong! The cop said we were going 74 in a 55 and there is no way that was even possible. Oh well, dumb cops... The next scary thing that happened was I woke up the last day we were there and suddenly remembered that I couldn't remember where I had put my ring! I didn't wear it much on our trip because I was afraid of ruining it or losing it, so I left it in the hotel. Well, after frantically searching the hotel room for a good 20 minutes, we got down on our knees and said a prayer. Then Josh went out to the car to look for it and I had a thought that I should get my cell phone. Kind weird... So I grabbed my purse, took my cell phone out and then started looking under the books on the desk. Then, right where I set my purse, I looked down at the floor and there it was!!! In plain sight!!! We looked all through that area before and there is no way that we could have missed it on the floor! Prayers are definitely answered! :) Here are some of the pics I have from our crazy trip!












Josh and I went on an overnight hike to Lewis Peak and had a blast!







We went up to Monte Cristo with Josh's side of the family and had a picnic!

  1. Finally!! Looks like your summer has been a lot of fun! Sorry about the ring scare! I bet that wasn't a good feeling at all! I remember when I was a little girl and I lost my CTR ring and I said a prayer, and it was right in my pocket even though I know I checked it a million times. haha. Pretty cool though! Are you coming this Saturday!?!
