Stewart Falls

One of my co-workers told me about a hike that her family likes to go on. It is up Provo Canyon on the Alpine Loop near Aspen Grove. We decided to try it out on Pioneer Day. We got up early to beat the heat and had a great time. It is about 2 miles into the falls. The scenery on the way up was very pretty!







Fourth of July

This year we started part of the festivities very early! We left Payson by about 5:45 so we could get to Provo and see the Hot Air Balloon Show. There were about 20 hot air balloons that took off at about the same time. We had never seen this kind of thing before, so it was a really fun activity.

We then went back home, took a nap, and had a barbeque. Later that night we went back into Provo to watch the fireworks from Stadium of Fire. We had the opportunity to go to Stadium of Fire, but turned it down after finding out that it was the Jonas Brothers that were performing. A lady that used to be in our ward asked us to help with the clean up from Stadium of Fire. We started working after the show until about 4 AM. Its a good thing we got paid really well because it sure did mess up our sleep schedule!
