Hiking Maple Canyon and playing at Palisades State park 6-5-2020

Hiking Maple Canyon

Dex and Miles both wanted to try their skills rock climbing.

Dex got higher than he was comfortable with, and Uncle Braden kindly helped him figure out how to get down safely.

James, Caitlyn, Nora, Livy, Dex, Amanda, Rex, Dean, Erika, Miles and Braden.

Erika, Dex, Livy Miles and Dean all made it to the waterfall

Climbing up and down the rope was the hardest part of the hike.  These kids were champs!

After the hike we all headed to "Biggies" in Moroni.  Best malts ever!

This chaos makes me sooooo happy!

Everyone but Mike.  

Cabin schooling for all the school age kids.

This humming bird hit the cabin window.  Nora, our "animal whisperer", sat and watched over it till it was able to fly away.

Cookie time!

Slumber party!

Notice the pony tails in James' beard

Three kids, live in three different state, all together at the cabin!

All the Grands!

Time to take out the pony tails

Lucy's cheeks are irresistible!

That went by sooo fast, time to say good-bye to Caitlyn and James.

The Francis kids and Amanda are here for a few more days.

Playing cards and hanging out in the cabin since is was SNOWING!  Yep, snowing on June 9th, all day long!
