Wallsburg

At the end of August we were able to go to The Ashton's amazing barn in Wallsburg, UT for a General Young Women family party. It was soooooooo fun! Im not even kidding, it was definitely the most fun day of the summer. This place is amazing and gorgeous. I seriously wish I was a good photographer so I could have captured the beauty and fun because these pics don't even do it justice.


Im obsessed with the big, red barn


First up, the zip line over the lake! It was sooo fun! A little freaky because it was way high (and I'm so scared of heights) but I still did it a few times and loved it.








We talked my dad into going even though he didn't have a swim suit!




Meg, me, and Katie
Next was the HUGE water slide! I cant even count how many times we went down this. We went down in trains, alone and the boys had competitions to see who could go the farthest.


My mom and a few other Board members couldn't pass up the fun so they went down in their clothes!

Me, my mom, and Meg

(Sarajane do you read my blog? Because Im pretty sure that's you and Richie!)


My dad even joined in on the boys competition


We also went rafting and swimming in the lake. The water felt sooo good, there is just something so much more fun about swimming in a lake rather than a pool.


Huge playground for the kids


Cute swings from the trees

Thank you Mom and the General Board! It really was the best day of the summer and it couldn't have been more fun. It was the epitome of a perfect summer day from the lake, to the weather, zip-lines, rope swing, popsicles, good food, water-slide, canoes, etc. It was such a great way to end summer I HOPE we get to go back there again!

It looks SO fun! Dee wrote the history of Wallsburg. It's one of his best books, because the pictures are so awesome—of course the stories are, too. He'll have to add a chapter with these fun photos!

I LOVED THIS DAY!!! I may just have to steal some of these amazing pics since we forgot our camera! That is definitely Richie and I in that pic. So funny!
