Here we come...

or so we thought! Benton took off Friday to hang out with his girls. We decided to go to Silver Lake, since I LOVE it up there. Benton Googled Silver Lake because it had been a year since I had been there, last year I went with my mom. As we were driving it told us to go up American Fork Canyon, which was weird because I didn't recall driving that far last year...but who knows maybe it has a faster way of getting up there? So we pull into the canyon and have to pay a fee since it's a National Forest, weird...don't remember paying for a fee, but my memories not the best so ok whatever....as we are driving, me still thinking this doesn't really look the same...hmmm...where are we? Turns out there is a Silver Lake Flat and that you have to hike up to, which I was not prepared for. We were hungry, so we decided just to have our picnic and then figure out how to get to the real Silver Lake. This is where we ended up, still really pretty!

After we left I called my mom to find out where the Silver Lake I wanted to go to was at, so we drove up Big Cottonwood Canyon to where I was thinking of going the whole time, I love it up there because it has such a nice paved path around the lake, makes it WAY easy with a baby!

I would love to have a cabin over looking this lake, how beautiful! We tried to get a family photo, a little hard, but it works!

After our adventure we drove to Park City and did a little Outlet shopping and ate at Cafe Rio. We had a lot of fun and really enjoyed all being together as a family!

So pretty! Makes me want to go camping...except for the dirty part. Maybe just a day trip and picnic. :)
