Oops, this post was supposed to come after the one posted before this, oh well. So another thing that happened once my parents arrived....We were roasting dogs over the fire and mine was perfectly burnt in all the right places and ready to be eaten, when suddenly the stick caught on fire. I started screaming No! My dog is going to fall off! Help!! My sister tried to hand me a plate and right when she did, the stick snapped and I lost the most perfect hot dog ever. :( We dragged it out of the fire pit and fed it to Buck, our dog. He loved it!

This is seriously my most favorite vacation spot!




So here's Danielle's leg after getting what I'm guessing was smoke burns from her flaming rock. It was so crazy!



And this is her sleeping bag and the hole burnt through it. Her mattress is further on.



For those of you who have never been to Goblin Valley, I highly recommend it! We had so much fun climbing, hiking, and just having adventures. The first two nights Dave and I took Dallin and Danielle with us. Then on Friday night the rest of my family showed up.
Dave and I would sleep with our Russian hat's because it got kinda chilly at night. :)
There's a super cool hike nearby, called Little Wild Horse Canyon. The rocks were amazing, like this picture here, but there were also cool places where the walls got so narrow you couldn't fit two people through at a time. It was definitely one of the coolest hikes I've ever done.

There was just an amazing variety of rocks period all along the hike.
So, apparantly very hot rocks left in a fire too long shouldn't be brought into tents. Leave the rock in the fire no longer than like five minutes and it will last you all night. Danielle's decided to burn a hole through her sleeping bag, through the mattress, and finally through our tent, eventually turning into a fire which Dallin put out with a nearby water bottle thank goodness. It was in the middle of the night and I was laughing my head off!
On March 27th we went to the David Archuletta concert. Dave was so excited and there was absolutely no chance of getting out of going, so we went. :) It ended up being a lot of fun, though. We were on the floor and it was just a fun date night!
