Wow, what a year this has been! To sum it up, 2018 has been the year of visitors for us! We’ve had 8 groups of people who were able to see us in Utah this year! 5 of those were able to actually come to our home. 2018 is also been extremely special for our family because my sister and …

Yi does More in Utah than any Other Visitor!
Keith met Yi while working in Indiana and even though they’ve know each quite awhile now, I feel like Yi has always been an “old friend.” We may not spend time with for months, but when we do we pick up like old friends do. Keith and I were super excited to hear that Yi would be visiting us in …

Since Renee and I have been friends forever, she knows Nancy but hadn’t seen her in …
Fiery Furnace Hike

Tickets do sell out quickly so you do need to plan ahead for this hike. See the Arches National Park website for specific details. This trail is most often described …
More Exploring in Red Canyon
It was nearing the end of our trip and we wanted to get Lexi out for another hike. There was still a short hike at Red Canyon that we hadn’t done so this was the perfect activity. Lexi had hiked with us previously in Red Canyon and enjoyed it so much that this was a no brainer. Check out the …
