Here are some pics I took of the trip... get ready to enjoy lots of green... well, maybe not with the first few pics, but after that... lots of green...
Here is a pic in our hotel room... the girls were drawing and coloring before bed.

On our way to breakfast the next morning at the place Michael and I used to go way back when we first got married; it's attached to the hotel we stayed at in Payson. We hadn't been there in years; it was closed for quite a while.

Breakfast at the restaurant; we were getting settled. Soon after we all had delicious food at our table.

It was raining at the lake when we got there.

It was nice and cool as well.

Family (self-timer) pic.

Bailey is into bugs... she loves 'em... all kinds, but especially these kind of bugs. She calls them ladybugs. They have the same coloring as ladybugs, but aren't the same shape. Bailey really didn't care what it was, she just knew it was cute and it became her new pet... for about 15 minutes (ha), and then she let it go.


We then headed to another part of the lake to find chipmunks to feed and to go hiking in the cool pines.

Do you see the chipmunk in this pic? It's looking right at my camera. Photogenic chipmunk.

Cute chipmunk on a rock.

Cute squirrel in a tree. See the raindrops on the lake? So pretty.

Close-up of a developing pine cone.

I loved the reflection on the lake and decided to take a pic.

The girls making homes for the chipmunks.


I liked the path Caitie was walking on.

Caitie loves rainy days in the woods.

Bailey contemplating... well, just taking a break, actually. ha

We had a great time in Payson and at Woods Canyon Lake. We love those places, especially on a cool, rainy, summer day. :)
