Power Hour Climb

 

We love to rock climb! Sometimes we do what we call a "Power Hour" just to get out and get on the rock! We may not have an entire day or even an afternoon to dedicate to climbing, but it's important to us to do things we love, even when we're pressed for time. The solution is to get stuff we need to get done and then play hard, even for just a little time. It's so refreshing to do what you love!

                                     

Kyle scales the wall like a champ!

My mom and dad came with us for this little outing. I love that they are adventurous and love to spend time with us, too!

Snowy Day in March?!

We flew to SLC from a trip to AZ to find our car covered in 6 inches of snow! 

It's a snowy March day in Utah! 

Spring or Winter? You never know in Utah!

Puerto Rico

Ready to ride! We are getting all geared up to take the zipline through the Puerto Rican canopy!

Kyle, showing his zipping skills!

Everything is bigger in the jungle! Can you tell the size of this centipede! Wow!

Sisters! We stopped at a little shop for souvenirs, a spectacular view and some refreshing coconut water, fresh from a chopped young coconut! My fav!!

Waterfalls!

We found several stunning waterfalls along our drive through the rainforest. This one was my favorite. The height was astounding and the angle was beautiful with many little riverlets of water running across the black stone. With the sun catching the water just right, it was lit up like shimmering diamonds. 

I was excited to get so close to an iguana in the wild! I expected it to run off, but I just kept scooting closer and closer. Cute little green guy!

If pallet wood suites your palette, then head to Puerto Rico for some fantastic pallet-wood grilled BBQ! The BBQ joints all use pallet wood to cook over - crazy! I'll pass on the pallet wood, thank you!

We love this place!

Oh yeah! We got our use out of our annual US National Park's Pass in Puerto Rico!

This lawn was absolutely gorgeous! It was acres and acres of manicured lawn with grand, 

old stone structures dotting the landscape. 

My hot Baby!

Craft Store fun

This is the kind of thing that Kyle does for fun when we go to the craft store together. He cracks me up!!

Zion's and Kendra's Ironman

In May, our friend, Kendra Gofredo, raced in the Ironman in St. George and invited us to watch and cheer her on. We stopped in Zion's National Park on the way to her race and hiked Angel's Landing. It was harrowing and had gorgeous views from the top!

After the hike I waded into the stream. It was cold but refreshing!

It was a beautiful day in Zion's!

We made it in time to watch Kendra run the last few miles of her marathon. These athletes are remarkable! So tough!!

Here she comes!

Coming into the finish line!

Here we are after her race. What a treat to see her compete!
