Goblin Valley

I love all of Utah's State and National Parks! Goblin Valley is among them and we went there these past 2 days. Dennen found a yurt that we were able to rent with Dennen's brother Derek, Mandy, and their two kids, Thomas and Emma. I used to love camping and sleeping in a tent.... I still love camping, but I'm not gonna lie, having kids and sleeping in a tent can be kind of rough at times. Renting a yurt is the bee's knees and I highly recommend it. There were beds enough to sleep 5 adults, a heater, running water, and electricity. All the nice things to have while camping. The yurt we stayed in was only 4 months old too, so it still felt way new.

The kids had so much fun running around and playing on the rocks (as did we)! They loved sliding on their bums down the rocks too. Finn never gets bored when he's outside and seems to always be able to entertain himself (which is awesome). We had a fire, roasted mallows, and made smores. Mmmm, mmmm!  It was a much needed little vacation.

Tomorrow we're taking Finn to Primary Children's to get scoped. The procedure is done under general anesthesia. The radiologist and Finn's surgeon will look at his surgery site with the scope and then decide if it needs to be dilated with a small balloon, or decide if other action needs to be taken. Please say a little prayer for Finn and wish us luck. This will be his 4th time under general anesthesia. The worst part is the aftermath. If anyone else has had a child go under general anesthesia you know what I'm talking about... They are nuts when they come off it! I think we'll have to have a brand new Matchbox car ready for him when the procedure is over.
