Trek

During the winter a bunch of Nathan’s friends went on a ski weekend to Winter Park with their church group.  Nathan was jealous that our church wasn’t doing a ski trip, but instead a pioneer trek in the summer.  I told him to invite his friends, I’m sure they would want to come.  ;) 

I also told him that he would learn a lot from the trek.  I think he even enjoyed it!  Of course having a lot of cute girls on the trek did help.  I need to get pictures of their two groups to add to this post, but until then here are my boys.

They went to Martin’s Cove in Wyoming.  They walked and talked a lot according to Jacob.

Nathan loved his hat.  He didn’t even get a sunburn!  After I took these pictures he wanted to try a flip on the trampoline to see if his hat would stay on.  This is the picture I took of him doing it.  I haven’t edited the picture at all and it seems almost like he is in front of a green screen, the way the picture looks.

Anyway, so grateful for this experience for my boys.  Grateful for their leaders and the sweet spirit they felt on the trek.  It’s all of these little experiences that add up making my boys who they are.  LOVE them!

I'm so glad your boys got to go! We've waited all these years for Ashton and Logan to go, and then our stake decided to cancel it. I am SO bummed!

What a wonderful experience! I've never had the opportunity to join one, my son & his wife got to be 'parents' on their stake's trek. My stake does "Moroni's Quest" instead, which is an amazing spiritual experience.

LOVE Nathan's hat! It rocks royally! Even doing a flip! It reminds me of Hoss Cartwright's 10 gallon hat from Bonanza (yeah, watched that show when it was new...I was a wee kiddo then though!)
