Spring Break in Bryce

This year we've resolved to spend more time enjoying Utah's amazing scenery... which hopefully means that Spring Break was the kickoff for many more happy family camping weekends! And if this week was any indication, we have many marshmallows, campfires, really dirty kids, snugly nights in sleeping bags, miles of hiking, and great family memories to come.

Hiking from Sunrise to Sunset Points

Hmm... methinks there might be some rain a-coming

Hiking down to Queen's Garden

Happy, hiking family!  WanYing did the full 3 1/2 miles... except for the last part where we were running up the hill to escape the hail... (remember that rain we saw a-coming? It a-came)

Easter Morning! Celebrating Resurrection with candy and good family times

Don't worry, we were prepared for the trip and brought our own bunnies

Hiking near the campground

Even when camping a girl has to look her best!

The kids adored their "Brigham's Brew" rootbeer

The boys relax in the hammock

For some reason her hot dog just wouldn't cook!

WanYing and Baby Bob enjoy the snow and fire

Finally we decided that we had enough of the snow and opted for the warmth of Rainy

Proud new Junior Rangers!

One last hike before heading out - hiking along the rim trail

All of our kids were super-hikers - it was tough to snap pictures of them they were so speedy!  WanYing liked to hang out with Mommy so it was easier to get pics of her :)

Handsome boys graciously stop for a picture

Magnificent Bryce Canyon

One happy family
