So yesterday was a holiday and the kids being out of school we decided to play tourist in our own backyard at the Valley of Fire. It was a perfect day to get out of the house and enjoy the great outdoors. The boys had fun checking out the hieroglyphics, climbing all over the rocks, feeding chipmunks, hearing their echos, seeing tadpoles, and we even spotted a big horn sheep!! Dustin thought he was pretty cool climbing the rocks with his brothers and said numerous times "I Spiderman" Degan was a crazy man and made my heart stop a few times, he was the first one up the rocks and the first one down! That kid has no fear and endless energy! Dillon kept an eye on Dusty making sure not to go to high and helped him out when he got scared, he really liked the hieroglyphics and drew some in art today!! I enjoyed seeing my boys work together and help each other out when they got in some tough spots, totally priceless to see them reach out to pull each other up the rocks or pick Dustin up and try and carry him! It was absolutely a perfect day to bad Dad couldn't join us. One funny story: At one of the spots there was a bunch of Chinese people and there was a little boy named Jeffrey who could speak both English and Chinese so the kids start talking and climbing around with him and Degan says: "hey Jeffrey I can speak Chinese!!" I was silently praying that he wouldn't bust out singing the billionaire song in his version of Chinese! luckily he didn't say anything but I think it's time we break the news to him that he can't really speak Chinese!!
