Box Canyon

About an hour away from us is a very nice, secluded, beautiful canyon that David just happened to find out about thanks to his Scout Camporee last weekend. We really wanted to go camping up there this weekend, but a certain soon-to-be-1 year old has too much of an icky nose to be sleeping outside. However, we grabbed Lala and met some friends from church to spend some time exploring the canyon for the afternoon.

It was so nice to see fall colors (on real leaves...not palms or cactus) and feel nice, crisp, cool weather!The boys (big and small) had a blast playing in the river at the bottom of the canyon. Brychan had to stop and throw in every rock and/or stick he could get his hands on.

We also climbed LOTS of rocks. *Sidenote: can you believe how dark his hair has gotten?
And Kehlton ate his fair share of rocks. Kehlton also took off across the river by himself. Luckily, that spot was quite low and hit him just above his ankles. He didn't seem to care that it was freezing!
Unfortunately, the batteries in the camera died about 5 photos in and I forgot to put the new batteries in the bag. Oops! We are seriously SO excited about going back as soon as we can!!
