TORREY!

Over Labor Day Weekend we went down to Torrey in southern Utah. My parents go there almost every weekend to work on their cabin they are finally able to build. This is their small side cabin that they are building first:

It is getting close! They are just getting the insulation and boards onto the roof now, which is what Will helped my dad with:
 

Another reason we were excited to go was because we finally got the two older girls fishing poles, and we were able to take them fishing. We took "R" too, even tho she didn't really fish, she still had fun tagging along. The fishing was actually terrible, it was windy, and the water was just gross and had tons of 'seaweed' or whatever it is called in a reservoir. We went to Lower Bounds on Boulder Mountain. Here's a few pics!





 On the last day, on our way out, we did some apple picking. They have a few 'U Pick' fruit orchards in Fruita, and the have these really delicious Ginger golden apples. Yum! Everything is $1 a pound, which kind of turns out to be a lot, but you can eat as much as you want to while you are picking! ;) We got a couple of bags full and I just made some applesauce with them today! Anyways, here are the girls helping me!




And here's my applesauce!

After that we made a pit stop at a park in Fruita, and when we drove in, there were tons of deer hanging out. The girls are looking at some here.



It also rained a ton while we were there. Here is a waterfall that came from all of the rain, and we actually saw a flash flood come down the creek, it was pretty cool.

Grandpa also made a little shelter for the girls to go play out in the rain.

And I can't forget my cute boy! He had fun too. We all slept in the cabin and he was an awesome sleeper, he just talked to everyone for a bit in his pack n play, and then he went right to sleep! We had fun!
