Wednesday we went to this place called fun fiesta in St. George. We played on Go Karts, Bumper Boats, and Miniature Golf. I wanted to take pictures but Justin told me to leave my camera. I'm glad I listened to him because I got drenched on the Bumper Boats! So anyways, on Thursday we went to Zion National Park. It was gorgeous! I think my favorite part was going to Weeping Rock. Weeping Rock is an overhanging blind arch which “rains” every day of the year. The spring water seeping out of the rock 100 feet overhead takes nearly 1000 years to travel through the porous Navajo sandstone above. The percolation slows at the underlying dense, less porous Kayenta sandstone layer, then follows a downhill course, raining on the observers below. Weeping Rock’s charm sometimes draws visitors to sit beneath its cascade of raindrops for hours.

Love this picture of Steph. And aren't those colors behind her super cool?
Here are a few more pictures from Zion's.
This is a super cool tunnel, cut out of the side of the mountain, that is over a mile long.
Checkerboard somethin' or other
On the hike to the Narrows. Next time we will be prepared and make it all the way up!
Mount of the Patriarchs. Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
Cool ankle tans, eh?
Ready to head back to the Condo and play games.
Speaking of games, Justin and I discovered this last week that the game Carcassone is very bad for our marriage. lol. We are way to competitive with each other. So to the people who let us borrow it... You will be getting it back very, very soon! lol
