East Canyon

When I was growing up, our family had many magical getaways to East Canyon.  I have many wonderful memories of staying overnight in the cabins, playing in the stream and fishing in the pond.  Rebecca and I made up a new word while up there, "poop-a-ca-ca" and laughed so hard we hyperventilated.

Fast forward to this past summer and we went back to make more memories; this time with the grandchildren.  Grandpa set up a giant tent and camped with the older grandkids.  (More than a few of them where TERRIFIED of bears, and couldn't believe Rosie snuck beef jerky into the tent!)  We fished in the pond and roasted hot dogs and smore's by the fire.  It was so incredibly fun!

The kids spent two nights in the cabin with Grammy, Grandpa and cousins.  They explored the stream and got very muddy, played miniature golf, swam and shopped in the little gift shop.  They loved it!  

We also went boating twice this summer at the East Canyon Reservoir.  The kids loved riding the tubes and swimming in the lake and a great time was had by all.  You can tell from the pictures that the cousins (and best uncles ever Greg and Jonny-Boy) tried every combination possible on the tubes.  Some rides were very slow and some very fast; but everyone got lots of turns on the tubes.  Like I wrote earlier, these are magical days!
