Tim hiked Mount Timpanogos this weekend with some scouts and leaders. They hiked up to the meadow on Friday night, camped, and then hiked to the summit on Saturday. They were back by 1:00 in the afternoon. His scouts did wonderfully considering it is a VERY tough hike. It was even raining off and on through the night. I'm proud of Tim for making it again and for encouraging his scouts to be able to make it as well. He came home renewed and feeling victorious. There is nothing like conquering nature to do that for you.
On Sunday Tim thought it would be fun to take a family drive through the mountains (the Alpine Loop) and see all the the beautiful changing leaves. It was just breathtaking!! It is amazing to me how many things God has done for us just so we can enjoy life. We had a great drive, walked a little, and saw many beautful views. If you haven't gotten to do it yet this season, now is the perfect time! It did cause me to ponder on my blessings and appreciate my wonderful family.
That is a beautiful picture of your family. I wish mine turned out that well. I was just thinking how beautiful the trees must be looking there now. We're going camping this weekend, but I told J I reserve the right to cancel last minute if it starts raining.
ReplyDeleteIsn't this the most beautiful time of year? I love it! I can't stop staring at the Mountains and all the colors...the leaves are so bright right now. I was all kinds of inspired when I read your blog - I think we are going to take a drive up the canyon as a family today!
ReplyDeleteQ is actually excited about working with the Scouts...I think it might have more than a little to do with getting to work with your husband.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful family and background. Isn't God so good to us?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors and family. Those drives can be the most memorable. I know ours were. Love Aunt Marlene
