The Loop

On Saturday Braxton played in his first football game of the season. He did such a great job! He is playing Center for the offense and Nose Guard for the defense. Unfortunately his team lost 10-18 but he did a really good job. After the game Tevita decided to take us on a little trip. Our kids had never been to Bryce Canyon so we did the loop. We started out in Richfield and went to Bryce Canyon and then went on the Boulder mountain. Then we were in Wayne County and then home. The whole trip took us about 7 hours. We had a great time and enjoyed showing the kids some new country. We honked the horn in the tunnel in Red Canyon. When I was a little girl that was my favorite thing to do. I guess I didn't make it as fun for my kids as my parents and grandparents did because they thought I was kind of silly for doing that. It was really fun to show the kids where my mom and grandparents spent a lot of their lives. I probably got some of the stories mixed up but I tried. Times like that I really wish my mom was still here. I would have loved to have her there with us to show the kids all her childhood places. The kids saw the museaum and wanted to stop and see. It was a really fun experience for all of us. There was some really cool animals there. We really enjoyed looking at all the butterflies. We were able to go outside and feed the deer. Lia was really scared that she was going to get bit by the deer. I was really afraid that we were going to be attacked by the chickens. Tevita had to come and hold my hand and walk me inside the fence because I was so scared. But it all worked out. We didn't get attacked and Lia overcame her fear and fed the deer. We had such a great time and it was so fun to have all of us all together.
