On the way down, we stopped at Arches National Park.
Devin and I in front of Fiery Furnace.
Grandpa, Grandma, Daren, Me, Ryleigh and Devin at Sand Dune Arch
Ryleigh didn't like standing in the sand but loved sitting on the rock.
The resort had a mini golf tournament. Our family made up probably 3/4 of the tourney but some how, Donovon was the only one to win his age group.
Ryleigh wanted to eat the animal food instead of feeding the animals so we put her back in the stroller and gave her some cheerios.
We hiked up to Treasure Falls.
Part of the gang
Grandma stayed down with the 2 babies and this is how we found Ryleigh when we came back. Grandma didn't want them to get bit by mosquitoes.
Grandpa, Donovon, Devin and I went to Chimney Rock. This is were the Ancestral Pueblo people built pit houses on a mesa facing Chimney Rock.
On the way back we stopped at Mesa Verde National Park. Here we were able to view and take tours of cliff dwellings where the Ancestral Pueblo people lived from 550 to 1300. It was very neat and interesting to see.

The only three granddaughters
When we got back to Kristi's house in Lehi we took Ryleigh to a "farm" at Thanksgiving Point. She loved seeing the animals, going on a wagon ride and riding a pony.
We also hit a Real Salt Lake soccer game before we headed home.
Our first goal. You can see the ball right on the goal line as it is going in.

Looks like an awesome trip! So glad you had a good time!
Oooo, I love going to see various ruins! I wonder if our houses will still be standing 100's and 1,000's of years from now? Somehow I doubt it. And the water fall, soooo pretty! We miss waterfalls out here, kinda hard for it to fall when we're at sea level with no hike in elevation for hours and hours! :) Look like you had fun.
Looks like you had a good time! Ryleigh is so cute!
