Our family road trip with Jesus. Smaller home. Bigger love.
Last weekend was one of my favorite weekends! For the first time on this trip we completely changed our route at the last minute and it gave us so many unexpected gifts. Bryce Canyon, which we were set to do after Zion, was forecasted for snow and cold all week and we just didn't feel …
We left Sand Hollow State Park on Saturday to make our way to southeast Utah then Southwest Colorado. Wow Southwest Utah was one of our fave stops for sure! We loved this state park and Zion , Zion and more Zion! Sand Hollow State Park had full hook ups, hot showers, lots of room at …

After a happy first day at Zion, we went back on Saturday and this time met up with some new friends we made on Instagram. They have been living the "Full time" life in their RV for 2 years! We were so happy to find a family to spend time with that has an older …

Going west, again!? We had to go west to go north because there's a big canyon in between where we were in Arizona and where we were headed in Utah. 🙂 The landscape was pretty on the drive and we loved seeing the trains out there, which has become a usual scene! It only took …
(Warning: Photo overload! We did a lot of fun things in AZ in between and after the grandparents visiting) How in the world is it May 8th!? I truly have no concept of time right now. Without the usual traditions and rhythms of life and the seasons like we're used to - it never feels …

For our last big AZ adventure with MomMom & Pa we went on a sunset Jeep tour at the Grand Canyon. We can't get enough of the canyon. It truly is still amazing to us every time we go. This Jeep Tour wasn't educational like Canyon Ministries' but we enjoyed riding through the Kaibab in …

After Bearizona and the Ranch, you'd think we had our fill of animal time - but that's not possible for the Rookies! So Sunday morning, we went with MomMom & Pa to the Deer Farm. What a cool experience that was! The Fallow deer were ready and waiting. They are smaller than most deer and …
