We had a wonderful weekend in Zion National Park. This time we camped out in the park. As luck would have it the weather didn't look great, like the whole way down it either snowed or rained on us. So we took detour after detour, a little mexican restaurant here, Kolob Canyon there. Eventually we arrived and the clouds parted just as we pulled up to our camp.

Playing monsters in the tent was one of Luke's favorite parts of the trip. He also LOVED having his own head lamp.
I think we could have just stayed at the visitors center and let Luke climb on these rocks all day. He loved them.
Another highlight was the bus (because we
bribed rewarded him with a sour patch kid at each stop, doesn't take much)

Here we are at the top of another big rock...do you see a theme. We had made it which was quite an accomplishment. Luke loves to either stop and laser all the passerby's (He is Buzz Lightyear) or ask their name and introduce himself (always by his full name)...so it takes a while :) At the top of the lower emerald pools it was basically a huge mud puddle, Luke couldn't have been more thrilled.
And of course playing by the fire with a fake mustache...I don't know...random...I just had it in my purse.
Here we are at the Temple of Sinewava. Luke is throwing leaves and in approximately 1 minute we will be surrounded by squirrels who have no fear of humans. As we sat down to our little picnic they tried to get in our packs, got on their back feet and begged for food, it was creepy ( and have you heard the noise they make?)...I am adding it to my irrational fears list right next to cows.
