It's all about tradition during our annual trip to Vernal. Our first night there Morgan makes his famous grilled pork loin, mmmm! We always stay up way to late talking. Then get up bright and early the next morning and head up to the base of Flaming Gorge Dam. Right after a quick stop off at the old "Sev" for ice. :) Enjoy an incredibly beautiful, fun, wet and wild run down the river. Followed by chicken salad/watermelon (no chips, oops:)) lunch at Little Hole. And we have to have a huge bag of peanut butter m&ms...we...maybe just me.

I did get in the water too...head first and backwards, thanks to Jeremy. No one captured the graceful moment on camera, thank goodness. :)

This year Alison got tickets for us to all go to the Demolition Derby later that night. The kids loved watching the cars smash crash, eating corn dogs and nachos and dancing out in the arena. (Well Luke didn't like the dancing part.) The next morning before we headed home we drove down to a huge sandbar on the river to play, dig sand castles, and let the kids let their jars of little frogs go. (That was, I'm pretty sure, the kid's highlight of the entire trip, catching frogs with the girls!)

Alison and Morgan took some family pictures of us. They do a great job! There were some really darling ones of the kids. I stole these off her blog. :) Thanks you guys for all the fun and adventures. As ALWAYS we had a wonderful time!
