A few more Utah pictures

Just a couple pictures that I didn't get a chance to post while I was visiting. :)

Thistle

Yesterday, my dad and I went looking for ghost towns. We had a book that told us the best ones, but were very disappointed to find what was left of the buildings was covered in graffiti and garbage. We ended up stopping by some interesting cliffs to collect rocks for my mom's rock garden. Tristan had a lot of fun collecting "Nana rocks", before we headed into Provo to go get chicken sandwiches at the hospital. Even though the boys don't like carrides, we had a lot of fun.

A Busy Week

A few things we have done lately...

Nana and Papa took to the Wheeler Farm in SLC. Tristan had a lot of fun feeding the ducks and pigeons and then waddling around with these giant geese! We saw lots of baby ducks and they were so stinking adorable. Another day we drove out behind the mountains to see if we could spot any deer, I mean, they are always around the house, but houses don't make very good nature backgrounds :) Unfortunately it was a warm day and we were disappointed. Instead, we ended up flying a kite later, but again, were disappointed for the lack of wind. We got it off the ground a couple times, but that was about it. Tristan helped Nana and Papa plant the raspberry bushes and then made a muddy mess watering them. And we spent a day with cousins to celebrate my niece's birthday! It was a busy week!
