Hiking in Goblin Valley

Mick took the kids down to Goblin Valley with his parents, Justin, Laralee and Ella, and Pete, Kenna and Kaylee, I had one last full day of Sat. classtime of HazMat Ops and had to stay behind to go to that. I was so bummed I didn't get to go with them. Goblin Valley is one of my very favorite places to go with my family. They left Fri. afternoon and stayed in a hotel in Green River. The kids played in the pool that night. Emma was quite the little water dog!

On Sat. morning they got up and drove over to Goblin Valley to hike around and play on the Goblins.

Little Lucious stayed behind with Mick's parents while he went on a little hike w/ the older 3. Emma got away from them and as soon as they turned around she was gone. Someone picked her up and took her to the ranger, worried that she was lost. Apparently, they didn't ask around to see if she belonged to anyone in the area. The whole family searched for a bit and were getting pretty worried. They finally found Emma sitting on the ranger's tailgate eating some Oreos and drinking a Capri Sun. She didn't seem to mind at all. Kind of scary that she would just go to anyone like that. I feel bad that she scared everyone so bad. I am so glad that she is ok and someone honest found her that was trying to do the right thing.

Mick said the girl's would hike around holding each other's hands. So cute!

Ty is the mountain goat of the family. There isn't anywhere that this boy does not dare go!

Ty just loves hanging out with his uncle Justin. The two hiked all over together. Ty was born while Justin was on his mission. It didn't take them long to become little buddies when Justin got home.

After they got done climbing on the goblins they went over to my very favorite hike called Little Wild Horse Canyon. It is so incredibly beautiful.

Mick said all the kids hiked their little tail ends off and did so well.

This is an example of how beautiful the hike is to walk through.
