2020 Blue Jeans Week 34

Be warned....lots of pictures in this post.  Last week was a busy week as we took Miss E to college, and spent the week there to see my oldest 2 and get a 'vacation' in the midst of all this crazy that is life right now.  It was a great week.  Miss A started law school!  We loved being all together as a family and being in the mountains and hiking.  It was great. Take a look....
Miss A has been learning how to knit and made these adorable baby booties for her cousin and his wife who are expecting their first baby in a few weeks.

Got all the stuff out of the van and into this girl's college apartment.  She is on campus but lives in a full-sized apartment so she has a full kitchen and living room.  She will be cooking her own food, no cafeteria for her.  She was excited to get there and get her room all ready!  Now just prayers she can stay there and actually attend!!!

Most of the week we spent at my grandparents cabin up in the mountains.  Love it there!

One family activity....we did some M&Ms tasting games.  I had bought several different kinds and everyone had to try them and guess what they were and vote for their favorite.  Peanut butter M&Ms won, but we all liked the white chocolate peanut ones a lot too.

Hike #1 for the week.  Love being in the mountains!

Family hike, and yes, we did wear our masks at times because it was crowded in some places.  The "new normal."

And this girl had her first day of law school the week we were there!  Go Miss A!!!  So excited for you!

Exploring with Ben's mom and dad.  Sure love them!

Family puzzle time at the cabin!

My grandparents' cabin is a place I love and holds lots of special memories!  So glad I got to take my kids here for the week!

Game time on the cabin back porch!

Hike #2 for the week....

Love the trees along this trail...

This hike went to a really pretty waterfall that felt so nice after a long, hot hike!

So pretty!  We hiked here when we were in college and dating.  Fun to do it with our family!

Love the mountains! 

Miss O playing with blocks at the cabin.  A favorite family pastime and family tradition from my grandparents.

My girls--masked and ready for school!  Can you see the big Y on the mountain behind them?  BYU freshman, junior and first year law student!

Unmasked and glad they can be there together to support each other!

Miss A in front of her law school.  Super excited for her!

Thanks for visiting!  Hope you have a great week and stay safe and healthy!!!

  1. Your week was just as busy as mine and I too had an overload of pictures. Miss E's room looks great and so cool to have an apartment. Super excited for Miss A starting law school. Love that M&M game. Peanut butter M&M are my all time favorite. It's great that you guys could relax at the family cabin and get some quality family time in with everyone. Love all the nature hikes too. Pretty scenery for sure.
