Spring Break

Brendan had Spring break last week, so we went to Moab with his family to enjoy some warm weather. Unfortunately the weather was not warm. It was very windy, and it rained a lot in town. We were staying at a cabin 13 miles from town in the La Sal mountains, so we had snow. The 13 mile road that led to the cabin was a dirt road with a lot of mud. We had to park our cars and all pile into Brendan's parent's truck in order to make it to the cabin, and even then it was a very rough ride. When the weather cleared up we were able to go out hiking.

We hiked in Arches National Park.

Hazel and I in Wild Horse Canyon.

We bought a backpack carrier for Hazel, and she loved it! She was so tired in this picture that she fell asleep shortly after.

My sister Whitney came home from her mission in February, so Hazel and I flew home to be there when she got off the plane. We were in town for two weeks and had a lot of fun.

I took my younger siblings to San Francisco for a day, and the weather was cold and rainy. We went to Ghirardelli Square for ice cream sundaes. We also drove to Half Moon Bay and the sun started to come out. It was a very pretty drive.

I like this picture because Whit is the only one in the air. Every time we tried to get a picture with everyone jumping in the air together, Whit was always a little behind.

We drove over the Golden Gate Bridge and it was pouring, but we decided it would be fun to get a picture. Poor Hazel was soaked.
