Zions National Park

On the weekend of October 13th, we journeyed to the St. George area of southern Utah with Tiffany's family. During the trip, we had the chance to add a third national park to our "have visited" list: Zions! We really enjoyed it. 

Lower Emerald Pool

We braved rainy weather and went on a short hike in Zions to Lower Emerald Pool. The rain allowed for a more dramatic waterfall scene that was so picturesque.

Shuttle Bus

It was chilly and wet on the day that we planned to go to the park, but that didn't keep us from going! Here we are enjoying a more dry shuttle ride to various sites in the park. 

ATV Riding

While in southern Utah, we rented some ATV's and went on a guided ride for two hours outside of St. George. For almost all of us, it was our first time riding--and it turned out to be a blast. 

Yellowstone National Park

During the weekend of October the 6th, Andrew's cousins, Matt and Jade Woods, came to Rexburg to visit us. We spent Saturday afternoon showing off the world's most famous national park to them--it was a perfect excuse to enjoy Yellowstone! These two Norris' love the outdoors. 

Old Faithful

After a thirty minute wait in chilly 35 degree weather, Matt and Jade feel relieved that "Old Faithful" finally erupted! 

Spasm Geyser

It seemed fitting to capture Andrew and Matt at "Spasm Geyser" near Old Faithful in Yellowstone. Their excitement that day matched the geyser's namesake all too well! 

Waterfalls in Gibbons area, Yellowstone

It was rainy and cold that day, but also a beautiful, worth-while trip. We spotted these waterfalls just a short walk off of the main road! 

Mesa Falls

We went to Mesa Falls near Island Park, Idaho, on Labor Day with Tiffany's cousins, Brittany and Levi Pardon. It was so beautiful!
