Hiking up in the Uintas...

We took some time to enjoy some of God's beautiful creations! The day after the blessing we took a short hike on a trail in Christmas Meadows.

At the beginning of the trail...

The rest of the gang. Stan, Martha, Olivia, Alicia, Aja, and Xan.

Gabi is all ready for her first hike!

The beautiful Christmas trees at Christmas Meadows!

Mom and Dad having some fun...


Sisterly love (Jack's little sisters Aja and Olivia)...


Gabi needed to nurse while we were out hiking....
we call this picture "Happy Feet".
She also needed a diaper change!


Big...

Bigger...
Biggest...
Needless to say Dad got his workout for the day.


Gabi was awake for the hike back.
She really enjoyed looking around!


This totally looks fake but as we were driving back
to the cabin we literally ran into a flock of sheep! (Note the dead pine trees in the background. Like Arizona, the bark beetle has hit this region pretty hard. In some areas it looks like 1 of every 4 trees is dying.)

"I caught you a delicious...TROUT?!?"
This is the beautiful cutthroat trout that Jack caught outside the cabin.
All of the fish in this part of the Bear River are wild and it is rare for them to get this big.

A cool shot of one of the many humming birds we watched from the cabin.


They really loved that sugar water!!
