Hiking to the Y

In the town of Provo, there is a University known to many as the "Y". They have such an emblem on the hill. It can be seen for quite a distance. Even though I graduated from this School I never hiked to the "Y". While my sister in law was visiting we ventured to accomplish this goal!


This is the campus of the University from the mountains looking down.


Hiking is rather fatiguing! Especially if you are 7, and a Lilly!


Toddlers generally weren't the most avid of hikers and needed much help.

Rachael was trying to reassure Holly that it was Okay and she could still walk some more...


Holly obviously Did not believe that she should HAVE to continue walking any more!


Lilly seemed to think Holly had the right Idea. Why were we doing this again?


She was much happier about it in general than Holly was.


Holly had enough and do you see that pained look on my face? It is because it was Hard! And it was heavy carrying my darling 35+ pound toddler. Yes, it does make it much harder when you carry an extra 35 pounds!


This is the girls sitting at the top of the Y! They made it!!!!


My oldest there with Christie's oldest! You go girls!


This was a pretty view of the Provo Valley from the Y.


Holly and I were sitting on the Y! This is proof that I made it to the Y with all 5 of my girls !


This is a photo of all the kids that were in our group that morning! We got up and left the house at 6 to get there! Me and my five kids, Christie and her oldest 3 kids, and her cousin Jeanie and her kids! We are mighty!


The kids Making a Y!


Yeah! Ps. don't recommend taking toddlers next time....
