We went to Bryce Canyon with
Steves family for a couple of days in July and had fun. Our kids love to camp and be outdoors. We saw lots of deer and even some pronghorn deer. The kids caught some lizards and Ryan wanted to bring one home,(but that didn't happen.) We hiked the rim trail along the top of the canyon on Friday. Saturday we did a REAL hike. With ten adults and thirteen children we hiked Navajo trail and Queens Garden. We saw the natural bridges on this hike. (there are pictures in the slide show) It was a great hike on the way down, but we had a great deal of elevation to climb to get back out. We all made it out alive though. I carried
Macey and the backpack with all our drinks and food. But on the way up the steep trail I was dragging Ryan and
Makenzie as well. They kept grabbing on to the backpack. Everyone was tired after that hike. We also hiked Mossy cave, which was a really pretty short hike. We all wish we would have wore our bathing suits for this hike. We didn't know that there was going to be a beautiful swimming hole with a waterfall. As you can see from the pictures though, it didn't stop us from getting in. We let the kids get wet in there undies or clothes. After our
mossycave excursion we all loaded up in two cars, so we didn't have to take the
motor home and drove out to see the rest of Bryce Canyon. Steve and Ed rode in the back of
Matts avalanche with five kids. Scary I know, but that is legal in the state of Utah. We saw
prong horned deer and a bunch of mule deer on our drive. It was a fun trip full of memories.

mossycave trail with nice cool water running by.
This picture is on the Navajo trail.
We hiked all the way down there. And then all the way back up.
Katie took a picture of us driving through the tunnel on the way out of the park.
