We went on a excellent vacation a couple weeks ago. My parents 'time-share' a cabin in the Unitahs and it is the perfect get-away! I love it. Especially in the fall when all the leaves are changed. It is only a little over an hours drive to get there and you get no reception on cell phones...so you are UN-reachable... My cousin and her family came up for two nights with us. We are so glad they did ...it was such a great time! -Ruby with my cousins little girl, Samantha.
Liam loves them rocks...hours of play time right there.
There is so much beautiful nature around, right outside the cabin door.
We hiked to Ruth Lake, it was gorgeous. Ruby and Samantha were little troopers and hiked the whole way, with only a little complaining. Ruby is used to being hauled around in the backpack so it is time to let her start bearing her own weight-even though she and Liam aren't far apart in pounds.
Marty was trying to be cool and 'surf' the log...actually he did fine the first time but I made him get back on for a picture and right after this he fell and landed right on his wrist and thigh. He got a killer bruise! I feel so bad...
This does not do justice for the beauty of the leaves! I wish I could have captured it better.
We got to use this 6 seater ATV. It was a blast and the kids loved it. After a while it put them right to sleep.
We loved having Ben and Kimby with us! Thanks guys!
Nothing beats hiking in the fall. We went to this great place and hiked for family night last week. We go hiking here every fall because it's got awesome leaves. 
The Zoo is free for me with my Tracy Aviary pass every 1st. Thursday of the month. My sis's all have a pass too so we went last week. It was a little chilly but it made the animals more active and 'visible'. Plus, there were lots of newborn animals in the different exhibits. Here is the load of kids we took -talk about 'hard to keep track of everyone!!!' It was a nightmare at times.
There was a baby elephant and it was precious- just 7 weeks old. 
Black Island Farms is such a fun(a little pricey) place to go in fall. My kids LOVED the slides and all the other things to do there. It was a great night. Marty was a sport and did the slides countless times over with them. He's such an interactive - gREAt dad. I would have actually enjoyed doing more that night but my big 'bump' makes it a little awkward. 
There was so much to do and see there- we wished we'd had more daylight and that we'd eaten before we came. We were famished by 8:30 and rushed off to Carl's Jr. where we all ate like little piggy's.!!
