Red Rocks, Rock!

We had a fun road trip this weekend. One of the cool things about living in Utah is the red rock and on Saturday we discovered a miniature Bryce Canyon about 60 miles from our home. It's called The Devils Kitchen and is a pretty awesome view.
We stopped along the way to stretch our legs and followed a few trails, one was around a small lake and Lilly was so excited to see the fish jumping.

Lilly and I give this trail four thumbs up :) Lilly was very proud that she could hike along the trail and climb over rocks all by herself. She is getting to be very independent, it's nice but it makes me a little sad to see my baby growing up so quickly. Lilly also wanted to try and cross the stream all by herself, but we decided she wasn't quite big enough to do it alone. Look at those long flexible legs, she is so bendy!We had a great time and love to play in mother natures playground :) I am so glad that Lilly enjoys hiking and being outside as much as we do. We are hoping to go on a few more hikes this summer and enjoy the beauty of the place we live. It's defiantly different terrain than Washington, but that is what I think is so cool about it. We do miss the evergreens and rain, but I think we are starting to find our adventurous groove here.
