It was such a great time.
We visited so many amazing things.
We saw so many amazing things.
We ate so much amazing food.
Nolan and I have talked and we want for vacations to be a huge part of our summers.
We plan to go on lots of family trips so that we can experience things together, and teach our kids things first hand.
These are some of the things I miss about our month away together as a family...
Togetherness- without anyone or anything to distract us.
Beautiful scenery...
Beautiful hikes where we could teach the kids about nature and the importance of taking care of our wonderful world...
Things built by man that are super impressive and make you marvel at how smart some people are...
Visiting 12 of the most beautiful National Parks and watching little man become a Jr. Ranger at 6 of them...
We saw lakes...
The Grand Canyon- Arches- Mountains- All breathtaking.
Sharing with our children the amazing handy work of God...
I miss it...
From nature to the Big lights of the city (literally- we drove into Las Vegas from camping at the Grand Canyon the night before)...
Paris (sort of)...
New York City (sort of)...
Hoover Dam...
We even got to visit the set of the hit tv show The Office. Micheal Scott's Office...
Me pretending I'm Pam and Nolan pretending he's Jim...
The Camaro...
We made it all the way to the ocean. The Santa Monica Pier...
Lots of fun...
The Giant Sequoias...
Wow...
We even survived some serious craziness and came out stronger because of it...
Yummy Food...
And even some good runs...
and of course lots of beautiful pictures (here at the Salt Lakes)...
I'm ready to go again!
