Mecham and Erickson kids eating dinner
For fall break, our dear friends Jen and Lance Erickson and family (Cael-8, Mara-6, Eden-4 and Beck-2) met us at Goblin Valley. We had a great day hiking the Goblins with the Erickson and our friends from school Emma and Everett. The kids all had a blast. We came back to our house for dinner and a super sleepover. Nine kids ages 9 and under in one house is pretty amazing! Since Jen and I have been friends for over 35 years, it was so much fun to have our kids play together and catch up. Cael was born while we were in Russia adopting Joseph so we both technically started our families together and Caroline and Beck are 12 days apart so we ended our kids together as well. We love the Erickson family and can't wait to get together and play again soon!
Lance and Jen--aren't they cute?
Courtney found a ledge in a cave.
Caroline and Eden take a break in another cave.
Notice Joseph and Emma in the middle up high in the cave.
Lance, Cael, Emma and Joseph prepared to come down off a ledge.
Alex sits on top of pumpkin rock. Someone had scratched a face into it.
Mara with Brittany 1, 2 and 3(my girls all wanted to be named Brittany while they were playing house) playing house. Mara was crushing "corn" into cornmeal on the rock.
Alex and Everett found a two-story cave.
