Luke's Weekend "O" Fun

So Luke's weekend started out with cheeseburgers on the grill Friday night, followed by camping in the backyard. In the morning we all jumped in the car with a picnic lunch and headed up Provo Canyon for ONE hike up to see Bridal Veil Falls. (Luke loves waterfalls "water fountains" so much, so we thought this would be pretty cool for him to see.) We ended up having so much fun that we decided to spend the entire day up the canyon doing, I don't know.... THREE Hikes! What were we were thinking!! But we all such a great time. We ate our picnic up at Cascade Springs and looked at the fish and waterfalls there. And just for Papa John, we all ate some watercress, Ava said it was "spicy". Then to finish the day off we hiked up to see Timpanogos Cave. Jeremy and I almost died on the way up but it was well worth it. It was a cool 40 degrees inside and it was so pretty. It amazes me that we live right next to these gorgeous mountains full of hidden magical places just waiting be explored and enjoyed. There is nothing like seeing the looks on your kids faces as they see these places for the first time.

Three hikes in the name of fun and adventures makes you mom of the year I think--even if you did cause Dose's untimely end.
