Mt. Pleasant Weekend

DSC08242

We went to Mt. Pleasant this weekend to be with the Sorenson’s.  Usually we visit them in Idaho for Memorial Day, but this year they moved to San Diego to live with Ian’s parents, a precursor to moving to Europe in the fall. Ian will be attending the University of Sheffield.

Ian’s Grandparents, Uncles, and Dad all own a cabin together. They decided, conveniently, to head up to the cabin (in Mt. Pleasant) to put up a pavilion and do some other work. So, we lucked out and got another short weekend trip with our Sorenson family.

Atley and Cadence had fun rolling and jumping around. Aunt Maria joined in the fun for a bit.

We chatted inside as sisters (Maria and Cassie also came). We decided to roast some marshmallows over a “fire” (they had one outside, but we had to inside because of the kiddos).  DSC08207Of course there was rock throwing (with two year old little boys), but we didn’t dare take them to our old spot at the stream because the water was very fast and high.

    Ian loves history, so we thought he’d enjoy the game Austin got for his birthday called “Blast from the Past” (LDS church trivia).DSC08228

We had a blast on the zip line they have there. Austin rigged up Cadence (with Cadence in the seat harness and Austin in the chest harness – modified). Everyone was pretty nervous but it was safe and he had a blast! (We later found out that Ian’s dad had another harness).
