Jess took that pic of me. At the beginning of the trail - ready for fun! Jen took a pic from the back of Paula's truck.
A few guys who were starting up the trail asked us if we were sponsored! Haha, no we're just a bunch of moms. Hyrum said last night that this can't be called a "girls" trip, it's a old women's trip. One of the husbands who was missing seeing all the active ladies in the neighborhood said he missed the Granite babes, so that's what stuck with us after. The mountains behind us (north east of us) are the south end of the Zion National Park Wilderness. The mountains look sooooo amazing.
We met the hikers and first time bikers at the top.
We all got there within 15 min of each other, yay. It's an amazing view of the Zion mountains and Virgin/La Verkin valley from the top. Here's ME just being normal.
I think the thing the other ladies were most surprised about me was how much I yell and grunt to get up over the technical features of the trail. I think it's my brains way of helping me prep for a fall, or to hopefully not fall. I The party is still goin on, but I came home cause I'm not used to that much fun haha. It was good and I got my fill. Originally I was coming back tonight cause we were going to go skiing tomorrow, though I knew that part of the plan had been cancelled due to high temps and lack of snow. I thought I'd still see Wes, but he hasn't been here. He went straight to Provo with Lauren's family (her parents picked them up from Rexburg) and Wes is going to stay the night at Ethan and Bella's. So, no climbing with Wes I guess, sniff. It was good while it lasted.

Kids were still awake when I got home but they were getting ready for bed. Abi took them all up to Layton to watch their cousin Mikey in his highschool's musical of "Catch Me If You Can". He was the lead Frank Abagnale Jr role!
Abi had said she was going to hang out with friends, so I was surprised she took them up. Neil treated them to tickets and a treat after. The judges were coming tonight, so Neil texted earlier this week asking if we could come, and since I was gone I didn't do anything to make it happen, so good job Abi for supporting your cousin! I was pleased that they went. I gave them all a hug and Corey and I visited about the trip while we cleaned up the kitchen. Oh, and Mel shared with me something - she has had the same issues as I do with her iphone not having storage. She said Christian fixed it tonight with a Microsoft "Apple Devices" app that she got on her computer to back up everything, and then she did the factory reset, and when she reinstalled everything it put back all her apps and messages and everything! She feels like she's been given a new life, lol, so I'm going to try that asap tomorrow! It was a nice weekend.
