We got to do a few more fun summer things once we got to Utah before school started. There's a cool splash pad and park near our house that we went to one morning, and the kids had a blast:
Early one Saturday morning we went to Bridal Veil Falls in Provo canyon. It was beautiful, but cold! We started on this trail, thinking it was an easy trail I had read about that takes you to the top of the falls. It very quickly got difficult, steep, and had lots of loose rocks, so we turned around:
The kids have been excited to go to the dinosaur museum since I told them about it months ago, so we made a stop there before school started:
We went to the Dripping Rock in Spanish Fork one morning, and the water was cold, but fun!
Our traditional camp-in-the-backyard right before school starts activity:
When I asked the kids what one thing they wanted to do before school started, they all said "swim!" So, after asking around on Facebook, I found a pool we could rent in Lehi. It was small, but the kids had fun. We also got to swim another time with some old friends at their parents' pool, but I didn't get any pictures of that.
Ivy only likes to swim for a little bit, then she likes to sit on the side, watch, and eat snacks. Just like her momma ;)
Though this was definitely a weird summer, and I wouldn't want to repeat it, we still had a great time with lots of adventures- and so much family time we wouldn't have had otherwise! There's always a silver lining!
