What a Day!

It finally happened. Emily had a UFO(un-food object) in her mouth. She was rather enjoying the crunch and munch when much to her dismay mommy’s finger was shoved in her mouth to remove said UFO. and well…theres no good way to say this. It was poop. I have no idea how she got it, but she had her own crap in her mouth. So now when ever anyone says something tastes like crap…well we can ask Emily if it does. I gagged.

After the crappy ordeal, we headed out on our road trip. It was the most gorgeous day. Its been so cold and windy here lately, but it was absolutely gorgeous out. We decided to go to Marble Canyon because I had never been there before. We stopped for lunch at some rinky dink little restaurant in Clinton. It was called the Cordial Cafe. The first thing our waitress said to us was “I have to apologize for our service. I’m a crappy waitress.”Then when I asked for a glass of water she said.” Do you want bottled water because the town water looks like someone tinkled in it and didn’t flush”. It was awesome. We stopped at this little antique store and wandered through. I found a tortilla press for 2 dollars so I bought it because Ive wanted one forever and they are like 40 bucks new. Such a good find I think.

When we got to marble canyon we drove right past it. It just looked like bluffs on the side of the road. There was this little pull off and thats it. We drove around for a bit and found this spot my Dad remembered where there was a pictograph. It was really neat. We hiked a bit and took lots of pictures. It was Emily’s first real day to play outside. Last summer she was to small to do pretty much anything, but lay on the grass. She wanted to walk everywhere. We let her sit in this big grassy hillside and play. She loved it.

We saw some people rock climbing up by the cliff face so we decided to go up and have a little look see. My eyes are downright liars. They made the hill look like a stroll. We were extreme hiking for a bit. I had Emily in the Backpack so I was good and weighted down. When we got to the top we started talking to some climbers and there was this guy there who new Dad from the high school. Then around the corner comes Mr. Meville. My high school shop teacher. Ok so this gets weirder still. While my parents were in Arizona last week so was Mr. Meville. Only they were riding Harleys and he had a convertible. And now here we are way the heck out in the middle of no where climbing up a mountain and here he is again. It was just plain weird.

Well over all we had an awesome day and I think we took some good pictures too.
