We decided to have a "Stay"cation this Memorial Day weekend. We enjoyed the outdoors and are loving the warm weather finally coming to Cache Valley. We started the weekend with a picnic at the Hyrum Hydro Park up Blacksmith Fork Canyon.
The kids had a blast climbing trees, eating hot dogs, throwing sticks in the river and playing on the playground.
Before we headed home, Emily had a great idea of building a boat out of all of the fallen twigs and branches. Russell weaved them all together while the kids had a competition on who could bring the most branches. When it was finished, Russell threw it in the river and we watched it float downstream never to be seen again. The kids were so mad at that but soon forgot about it. Saturday was such a fun day.
Monday we got together with a bunch of our neighbors and friends and had a barbecue up the canyon. It was such a nice night that we didn't want to come home.
This isn't about Memorial Day but I had to put it in here for fun. Colby and Emily had their last soccer games of the season last Saturday. Unfortunately it was pouring rain and freezing cold. Here is a final picture of Colby and his team:
Happy Memorial Day!
