Life with the Larsons: February 2014

Planning a vacation is fun at the Larson house. Mom and Dad talk about all the places they want to see and then we map out a plan and go there! With Mom doing summer school, Dad was primarily in charge of the planning this summer and he did a great job of getting us to Utah and showing us the sites. It surely was a vacation to remember!

Arizona sunsets are amazing and as we spent some time in Flagstaff on our way through, we enjoyed some beauty in the sky. We also took time to watch Cars 2 and go to the indoor aquatic center. The kids loved the movie, but the pool was not as big of a hit since we got kicked out after just being there for a few minutes since someone pooped in the pool! Yuck!

We made it ot St. George for the Fourth of July. Our RV park was close to the temple and had a great view of their amazing fireworks and had a pool that was perfect for the kids to cool off in.

Jace loves the water! Three weeks old- what a cutie! Love this little guy!

Jason cannot hardly drive by a lake and not stop, so on our way to Flagstaff, he stopped to fish and caught some fish for dinner.

We are on our way!

The Dam...its huge!

Lake Powell...it was the Fourth of July weekend and so HOT!!!!

When you got to Utah, you have to see all the Dinosaur muesems! Travis loved this one that was an actual dig site.

Loving some fossils!

Look- almost as big as a dinosaur leg!

T-Rex is Travis's favorite! He loves dinosaurs so much right now! This is so much for for this little boy!

We saw it!!

The temple in St. George was so beautiful!

On the temple steps!

Our little family at the St. George Temple...

Stopping for a pic on Zion's highway...near Bryce Canyon.

Look at the deer- Travis so wanted to touch him!

Hiking Bryce Canyon was amazing! It is so beautiful!

The deer were just feet away from us and didn't mind us at all!

Taking a break...

It's tough being a baby! Especially on vacation! Jace is a good sleeper luckily!

Next stop- snow! Crazy!

Dad found another lake to fish at - Panguich. Such a peaceful, mountain area!

In Manti- we stayed at the Yogi the bear park just under the temple!

Manti Temple!

This temple is amazing! It is so beautiful, sitting high on the mountain top.

Amazing!

Dad learns to fly fish...watch out for the hook!

The lights at night are so awesome!

Temple bound....

Future missionary!

On Manti's temple steps...

Love Travis curls!

My sweet baby Jace! I love this little guy!

What is vacation without some water fun!? The kids love the all the water slides at Cherry Creek. We camped here...so much fun to pick and eat cherries, camp, and hang out at the water park!

Go Reagan!

Having fun!

Dad loves a water slide too!

Hey guys- ME TOO!

Reagan is a little fish!

Every once in a while, even a fish needs a rest!

Girls just wanna have fun!

Loving all this camping!

Look at that smile! How can you be mad when he wakes us up at night?! Love this boy!

Salt Lake:

The Salt Lake Temple is nothing short of amazing! The grounds, the building, the visitors center- everything! It has the most peaceful feeling to be there...
