Labor Day in the Mountains

I'm still trying to catch up so bare with me people! 

For Labor Day our friends, the Parrys, invited us to go with them to their family cabin.  Now, I'd love to tell you exactly where that was but I don't know. :)   We traveled about 4 1/2 hours from St. George to somewhere in the central part of Utah.  I do know that it was pretty - very different than the mountains of the Pacific NW - but pretty in it's own way.  There were lots of aspen trees which did make us feel at home as we had a LOT of those in our yard back in Spokane.  And there were lots of rolling hills and little lakes all around.

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable weekend! Some of the things we did:
     * slept in every day!
     * ate great food
     * read books
     * played lots of games
     * rode four-wheelers (a first for our kids - they loved it!)
     * sat around the campfire, roasting marshmallows and eating s'mores
     * watched movies
     * remembered what it's like to be COLD!
     * learned we needed to turn on the water pump whenever we needed water or flushed :)
     * saw a new part of Utah that we hadn't seen before
     * had a great time with friends!
