Hike to Timpanogos Cave

During June I went on a hike with my sisters and their kids to the Timpanogos Cave. It was a great hike and we had so much fun! Just to warn you, there are a lot of pictures in this post, so be prepared! Ha ha!


Here we are ready to go on our hike! Some nice old man took this pic for us. :)


My niece Madison and I.

Two of the trouble makers, my nephew Baylan and my niece Whitney.

Ha ha! I ran through this arch thinking that I would take a picture of everyone walking through...what I didn't know was that my sister was trying to take a picture of everyone too! You can barely see her in the background, but apparently I ruined her shot. ;)

My two beautiful sisters. Cherish is on the left side of the pic and Camie is on the right.

The other two trouble makers, my nieces Savannah and Corah. I loved this picture of them because it just seemed to really catch their personalities. :)



Camie is locked inside!!! OH NO!!!!!

My niece Brooklyn is locked inside too!!!!

Whitney trying to be a rock climber.

These flowers were so cool! They were growing right out of the rock!

Being brave!

Camie has a jolly rancher in her mouth in case you weren't able to see that. ;)

I didn't even have to zoom to take this pic! This little chipmunk wanted his picture taken!

My niece Myriah and I.

This is Cherish with 4 of her kids. Her son Dallas couldn't come with us. Poor guy!

Here's Camie with her 3 kids.

This was a "lake" inside the cave. The tour guide said that even a small puddle is considered a lake when it's inside a cave.


They call this Stalactite "The Heart of the Cave" because it's the biggest Stalactite there. :)

California!!

So, the first week of June I went on a fun trip with a few of my awesome girlfriends. We drove to California and spent a few days playing in the sun. :) We went to Disneyland, the beach, and even went on a ride in a yacht. It was so much fun! I loved it! It was great to just get away and be with the girls. Karina, Kelly, Kate, and I all went. It was Kate's first trip to Disneyland so we tried to make it as memorable and fun as possible. We even made sure that she got a special button that said it was her first time! Ha ha. She didn't get the real Disneyland experience though because she hardly ever had to wait in a line! This was because Kelly had fractured her foot and so we pushed her around in a wheelchair all over the park. I'm telling you, that is the way to do Disneyland! With some of the rides you just go straight to the front of the line without even waiting! It's crazy! Of course I'm not happy that you hurt your foot Kel. ;) Below are a few pics of the trip.

Here we are at the beach.


Captain EO!!! This was the Michael Jackson 3D movie that they played in Disneyland YEARS ago! They brought it back and we had to see it. It was hilarious!


The before picture of my favorite ride...The Tower of Terror!


And the during picture of that same ride. Ha ha ha!


These were some of the most amazing Ice-cream bars!



Here we are on the yacht.

These seals were funny. They just sit out on that buoy all day long!

Back to Disneyland. Here we are with our 3D glasses for the Bug's Life 3D mini-movie.

This picture was taken right after we went on the Grizzly Rapids ride. We were all soaked. The problem was, we didn't go on that ride until later in the evening, so we were all freezing too!

Of course we had to get the classic picture in the front of the park with Mickey's head.

And the other classic picture in front of Sleeping Beauty's castle.
It was such a fun trip! I love these girls!! :)
