Dinner in the canyon

A few weeks ago we decided we wanted to drive up the canyon to see the fall colors.  We went up Millcreek Canyon and while we didn't see too many fall colors, we had a fun dinner.  It was kind of a spur of the moment decision, so we weren't really dressed for walking around in the woods, but it turned out fun anyway.  We got KFC for dinner and found a picnic table to eat at.

The kids started exploring right away.  Here they were checking out this little tiny river.  I love Zac's "help" with Riley.

We had to force the kids to sit down and eat before they ran off too far.

Riley loved gnawing on the chicken.

The kids climbed up this steep hill.  It was pretty scary.  The dirt was really loose so it was slippery.  And this was the view we got of Emery.  ha ha!

It was a fun night.  We wanted to go back and have a campfire there, but we haven't yet.  The weather still isn't too bad so maybe we can still go!


When we got our food out and started eating we realized we were missing something rather important...so we improvised.
