Eden Highlights

For Angel's family's annual summer vacation we all headed up to Eden, UT to occupy a large rented house for about a week. There was lots of fun that happened but I only took pictures of a couple things so that's all you get.
Doug, Ken and I led an expedition to help all the kids learn a thing or two (probably just one) about repelling. As a primer, Doug rigged up a practice station on a column around the back of the house. Lincoln had been watching the other kids and wanted his turn to practice:

He did pretty good. Although he is stepping on the rope in that last one.

Lincoln didn't go for the real repelling though, maybe next year.  He did however take a pretty serious hike with us up to a waterfall.

Getting psyched (and hugged) at the trailhead.

 The goal.

The hike wasn't too long but it was pretty steep and rocky. Lincoln made it all the way to the top by himself. He likes hiking but he did need a bit of help on the way down.

Lincoln spent a lot of his time there just running around the house being happy and playing with cousins.

Also, my wife is beautiful.
