This summer we were lucky enough to have the Mills family visit. Davis and Rylan were able to attend a basketball camp at BYU. Man, it wore them out! But not enought to stop us from hiking the 'Y'!
Natalie en route to the top!
Which one of these is not like the other? All seem to be smiling except for, yes, Maren. She didn't think that hiking in 90+ degree weather was the most fun.
But we kept encouraging her, waiting for her, and helping her along.
Make a wish, Davis! And blow hard!
That's better...we are all smiling now! It was a bit hot that day, but the view was spectacular! And the company was even better.
Millie had a pocket FULL of special rocks. This was a favorite.
Millie was a super hiker. She walked the whole way up and down!
Sitting on the 'Y'. WE MADE IT! It turned out to be a great experience for Maren. She found out that she really can do hard things! And it so worth in the end. Great job everyone!
We missed our dad on the hike. Dennis wasn't feeling well that day. He really only loves to hike when there is a stream or lake at the end while holding a fly rod! But we'll get him next time.
By the end of their stay, Eli really took to Uncle Michael.
Thanks again for visiting. We'll take you anytime!

Way to go! We hiked the 'Y' a couple years ago when Josh was just 4 yrs. Since we were carrying little Josie we told Josh he would have to do the hike himself. He did it and did it with more stamina than I had!
I'm ashamed to say I have never done the Y hike. It looks so fun. Next summer????
