High on a Mountain Top

This is SO late in posting but its been crazy busy. I think I will make my new years resolution to be a better blogger. Anyway, Here bellow you will see that Mike and I took a Vacation to Utah this past July to visit family and meet the guy in this photo with the Zebras on his T-shirt. His name is Zach Panter. He is Maria's(pink shirt) fiance! Yay! We had a terrific time! I can say that no hiking in Kansas will EVER measure up to hiking in the Mountains. Trail or No trail. The hardest part for me, besides the obvious, was the lack of oxygen. Mike considered the "paved path" as "not much of a hike". He would prefer to go on a path less modernized.

We also went camping! (which I said I would Never do in the Mountains for fear of Bears!) Thankfully Rebekah(Lydia's 6yr old Niece) said a prayer that no bears would come and eat us or bother us. She continued to remind her mother and us that we didn't need to worry about any bears because God will protect us because she asked. Such Faith! And ya know what..She was right!

Uncle Mike and Rebekah making S'Mores.                          Uncle Mike was a favorite.

Suzanne (Lydia's mom) was able to come with us on our little adventure! She was also nice enough to let Mike and I use her full sized blow-up matress. We put it on our cots and we slept like babies! Poor mom had the one she slept on deflate on her in the night.
Isaac (the littlest guy) slept in this make shift baby caged area. This little fence came in handy! Great thinking Alisha!

     Playing toss the kid was fun and a good upper body workout. We just tossed Seth (pictured right) back and forth until we got worn out. Lucas's kids are like little fish. They just keep swimming swimming swimming! Wish we still had that kind of energy!

Well there is SOO much more to post on this subject but We will post more at a later time. (pictures too!)
