Day at Zion National Park

For my birthday we decided to spend the day visiting Zion National Park. The kids and I had never been before, and it also happened to be free admission that day, so we were able to take advantage of going on the cheap. Although we didn't get to spend as much time as I would have liked there (it rained off and on that day and we had a 6-week-old in tow), we did take the bus tour through the park and also did a couple of quick hikes with the kids. (On a side note, Jon got quite a few funny looks from people that day while he was carrying little Landon around in the baby carrier. Did they think it was cute or unmasculine for him to be wearing one of those?) All in all, we had a fun day and we would love to return there sometime soon. It is amazing that we have such spectacular surroundings right in our own backyard!Pooped!
