Panguitch and Vegas

After driving back to Vegas from Disneyland, we got up fairly early the next morning and drove to Panguitch Lake in Utah, a lake Jeremy always went fishing at when he was younger.  We hadn't been there in so long, several years before the girls were born, and Jeremy couldn't wait to get back there. 



One of many trout that we caught.


Each night we took a short drive in the mountains;  we always saw tons of deer and were also surprised to see several elk. 
Since we were out there over Bri's 4th birthday, grandma planned a wonderful Hello Kitty birthday party for her complete with an ice cream cake and pinata.

What's a camping trip without a campfire?

After spending 3 nights in Utah, we drove back to Vegas for two more days.  The girls had a blast walking the dogs to the park each day.
One day we went to a place in Vegas called "Springs Reserve," which was awesome.  It's hard to describe but was full of Las Vegas history, animals, gardens, a playground, educational stuff, etc.  The best part was that we were like the only ones there. 
They had an awesome cactus garden.

The garbage truck was one of the favorites.



Much thanks to grandma, grandpa, Darryl, Wendy, and Michael for a great week!
