Way Out West

In honor of my "big birthday" in August and Matthew's graduation from Liberty University this past May, the Stevens Family left the "Sunshine State" and headed west for a grand adventure to Utah, Arizona and Colorado. We flew into Salt Lake City and explored all the way to Denver before heading back to Florida.

First stop Utah!

I could get used to this view!

We took a ride on the chair lift at Sundance Resort.

This is the view from the top!

We hiked the trail on "Y' mountain in Provo. It was very challenging but we all made it to the top!

The view of Utah Lake and Provo at dusk was well worth the hike!

One of my favorite places on earth!

 

 

 

We have visited the South Rim of the Grand Canyon several times. We finally made it to the North Rim!

The view was amazing!

Adventure Awaits

This print was done by Breezy Brookshire. Click here to view more of her amazing work.

This wonderful print was an anniversary gift. I love it! It reminds me of all the adventures my two little boys use to have. Every time I look at it, I think of how much fun my guys had  planning and pretending. Oh, how quickly they have grown up! 

I encourage you to take a moment today  to stop and enjoy whatever stage in life your children are at. It goes by so fast... make sure you take time to enjoy the adventure!  

Through the Years

   
On July 27, 1985, our adventure together began!  
I can hardly believe it's been 27 years!

                                         

What We've Been Up to Lately

Back in November, we had the privilege to attend the premier of The Mysterious Islands at the IMAX Theatre in Tampa. We had a wonderful evening with friends watching a remarkable movie.

William, is that sweet tea in that cup?







Andrew patiently waited for Mr. Phillips to sign his movie poster.
