Away and then Home | Monthly Wrap


April has not been without its crazy, but was over-all a very fun month. We started strong with fun time together in the car [#haha #roadtrip] and adventuring around Utah, Nevada and Arizona. Both boys have recently made stronger connections with friends at school, visiting their homes for play dates and bonding over Rubix cubes. And awesome people from Walla Walla came to visit us for some spring skiing! They slept outside in this cluster of hammocks!
As with most places, Horseshoe Bend was cool, but blown way out of proportion in my mind. I probably could have taken a better photo with a tripod and less caution, but I'm good. I've been there...along with the other five hundred people visiting that evening. 

I think the only place that was more awesome than I thought it was going to be was Yosemite National Park and only because the first time I saw Half Dome was at night, silhouetted among stars. It really was magical.
