Sunday Reverie & a Must-See Spot!

Yesterday was a very nice day for Isaac and myself. We spent the evening at Mom Davies' home with the rest of the fam (Isaiah & Sky, Lenae & Cody, Veneta & girls, Brigham & daughter, Elijah & Leslie, Enoch, Grandpa Hoffman, & Mom Davies). The house was a full one. We had a dinner, cake and icecream for Alexis' sixth birthday which is coming in two days. We chatted and had fun, then Isaac and I excused ourselves to go for a drive. We went up Little Cottonwood Canyon all the way to the end of the road, and boy did I wish I had a camera! It was beautiful up there! The end of the highway is in the Alta ski resort, and the name of the place is Albion Basin. If you have never been there, go, and go now. The wildflowers are in full bloom and amazing to behold. There are hiking trails all over the place. I want to go back and hike around one of these days, but work prevents much of that... :( Anyways, you have all been informed of it. The Basin is 12 miles up the canyon. Put on your hiking boots, and don't forget to bring your camera too!
After returning from our quick trip up the canyon, we returned to the main Davies hub and proceeded to bring out the fireworks we couldn't light on Friday. We then put on a brief fireworks show for the remaining family members. It was quite enjoyable to be able to spend time with my new family members yesterday. :)
