Well, the rain has returned. Today we decided a road trip in the rain would be more fun than sitting around stuck in the house so we decided to head up American Fork Canyon. By the time we got to Highland the rain had pretty much stopped and the sun was popping out, so we were able to get out of the car and play a bit.
As you can see, the water coming down the canyon is very high right now - it is spilling over it's banks in most places. Everything is so green and pretty!
Tibble Fork Resevior is also very high. Water is gushing out over the spillway. I had Jarod pose for this great shot. Do you love his outfit? He actually generally has better fashion sense, but I guess he was preparing for any kind of weather. It worked out great because those boots were perfect for wading!
Of course the boys went right for any rocks they could climb. Jarod particularly couldn't wait to stop driving and start heading up the hill. Lindsie wouldn't even get out of the car!
It didn't take long for all my boys to head up the rocks (even Joey). Once again, check out the awesome outfit!
We had a nice quiet day. Sometimes it's nice to just "head for the hills." By the time we got back to West Valley, it was raining again. It still is! Nice wet Memorial Day Weekend. Oh well. Better than sweltering hot, and the rain smells good!

Very pretty! I LOVE Jarod's outfit! That is how my kids dress every day!
We already said that those boys must be related to their Grandpa.
It's surprising how much we get to missing all the things we took for granted before! We would love to drive up to Tibble Fork or go to Capitol Reef or Jackson, etc.
Ok Amy, in which way do you mean that?! The rock climbing or Jarod's clothes?
The clothes of course. And my name is Julie, not Amy. Even from across the world you call us the wrong names!!: )
