The Mecham Family: Playing Catch-up...Prepare for Photo Over-load!

We have been busy this summer!! I'm not even going to attempt putting these pictures in any certain order... But I will try to at least give captions :) Last weekend we took the kids up to Sundance and rode the ski lift. It was a really fun to do with the kids, they thought it was almost as good as a Disneyland ride...Even if mom was freaking out about them falling every time they moved...

A few weeks ago we hiked to Timpanogos Cave. It's a mile and a half up and pretty steep. The kids did AWESOME!

Below: This is the "heart" and there is a whole story/legend behind it... pretty fun to listen to the tour guides tell the history of the mountain and cave.

On the way up... Shyler needed several breaks and encouragement

We also went camping with Cole's family to celebrate his Grandma and Grandpa's birthdays...

The cousins having a snack

Fishing at Payson lake

I think Cole must have spotted a girl in a bikini floating on the lake...

Grandma Miriam really wanted some stumps to take home and put on her porch, so Cole and Jeff helped her out.

Grandpa Orson waiting to start a card game

Shantel, Natasha and Orson

The kids were having a "meeting"

Shyler and two neighbor friends put on a "circus" one summer day...Zoey was their lion, and she even jumped through a hoop!

We took a trip to the Grand Canyon & Bryce Canyon, which I already shared pics from..but these ones were on Cole's camera.

Below: The day we came home was May 21, 2011, the day that Harold Camping and his followers had said Jesus Christ would return to the earth... When we were driving home, I caught this and joked to Cole that it was the cult being "lifted up"...writing it now, it probably isn't that funny to poke fun at someone's beliefs, but at the time, the coincidence was too much to not take a pic.
