I think they could get use to this! No better way

I think they could get use to this! No better way to end our stay in the pit house then a soak in some natural hot springs!

Did you know that soaking in hot springs come with some amazing benefits for your skin and body?!

Here are some benefits of hot springs
💦 naturally detoxes your skin
💦 the sulfur has been shown to help persisting skin conditions
💦 relaxes your mind and reduces stress
💦 helps circulation
💦 natural painkiller - helps soothe joint pain, arthritis and fibromyalgia.

No wonder the ride home included no fits and just relaxed sleepy boys 😊

Well I’m pretty sure this is the most unique place we have stayed at yet!

This pit house is a modernized version of a pit house that the Fremont Indians lived in. And when I say modernized, I mean mattresses, electricity and an electric heater to keep you toasty warm during those colder months. Yet it still has an authentic feel with the concrete floors, exposed wood and skylight that opens up. The boys are now asking for a pit house in our backyard 😂 You know it’s a win when that happens!

Located at Fremont Indian State Park in a secluded spot at the Sam Stowe Campground, its close to the museum, epic views, trails and more! Definitely worth the visit and I would highly recommend staying here if your up to unique accommodations like this!

Would you stay in this Pit House?!

The boys have been asking for a dog for so long and their wish finally came true today! We are looking forward to many outdoor adventures with cute little Summit 😊

Mcpolin Barn in the fall is sure spectacular!

Beckham had a school day at home the other day, so we had two options. Option one stay home and listen to Beckham ask over and over again, “mom can I play video games” Similar to the Simpsons episode “can we go to Mt. Splashmore” (google it!) Option two being head up the mountains for a day of play. Naturally we chose option two!

I do these things because I know that time is a gift and these two boys will not be this little for long. One day they will not want to explore these places with me as they will rather be off doing there own thing. So I use this time I have now with them to play, explore and just enjoy what life has given us! Of course we have many days just chilling at home too, but given the choice we always choose to go adventure somewhere together.

It was around this same time last year that we explored this barn for the first time. It’s a great place where you can learn the history behind it, walk or ride your bike on the nature trails and during the fall they have a scarecrow festival that is fun to check everyone’s creations!

These fall colors are not going to wait for you, so get outside and go see them before they’re gone! I promise you will leave with a smile on your face!

📍Willow Heights Trail
The trail I thought I would never step foot on again. Some of you may remember this is trail where a not so happy Moose charged at us! I am happy that I conquered my fear and made it to the top this time with no moose in sight. And don’t get me wrong, I like to see the lovely moose in nature just not so close and following me from behind on the trail 😬

Here are the canyons we like to explore often and take drive or hike to see all the beautiful array of colors 🍂

🍁Big Cottonwood Canyon

Fall is about to start showing off and we’re here for it 🍂🍁

Bloods Lake trail located in Park City is absolutely stunning in the fall! We are always looking for new places to explore the fall colors. Where are some of your favorite hikes or drives during the fall?

It is crazy how opposite your kids can be. Differ

It is crazy how opposite your kids can be. Different personalities, likes etc... One thing I hope they will have in common is to be kind human beings. As parents, we are always striving to be successful in raising our kids. I tell them to always cheer their friends on in their success, if their predecessors have been somewhere or done something they haven’t, ask for their expertise or advice, and don’t always look at yourself as the expert. Life will come with many changes, take those changes in stride. Life is what you make of it and you only live once. So choose to stand tall and stand proud for what you have done and accomplished. And above all just be kind!

I have always loved this quote and feel it’s pretty fitting for this post.

“Life is short, live it. Love is rare, grab it. Anger is bad, dump it. Fear is awful, face it. Memories are sweet, cherish it.”
