I heart Vernal

It's where my mom grew up and is a place that will always be special in my heart!

I love Vernal...

For hotdog roast in the gully.

For cousins.
For celebrating Easter in May and dying Easter eggs even though I am probably too old.
For making/hiding Easter baskets and helping Nick find his for more than 20 minutes.
For rolling our Easters eggs down Chocolate Rock and getting them thrown back at me.
For finding candy in plastic eggs before the kiddos do.
For the beautiful farm and all the memories I have there.
Last but not least, for the 9 baby kitties that I wanted to bring home.
Confession: I have more pictures of cats on my phone than anything else. A distance second is my sister's baby boys!

Makes me long for a good old fashioned Vernal visit. Thanks.

I'll have to send you more picture of the babies. :-) Great post. Love the format. I want to steal it for my blog again.

I remember going to vernal with you guys and playing in your grandma's attic and going off of that HUGE rope swing in the back yard- Zane always took it as high as he could. I also remember collecting rocks and going tubing down the river with your family and jumping off of the red sandstone rocks into the lake. I can see why you love it. Oh, and baby kitties- I love baby kitties!
