Zion's Camping Trip

This past weekend I went to Zion's with my mom's side of the family. It was so much fun. My parents let me and Andrew take the van with Mark, Sloan, Scott, and Whitney. Mark and Scott drove. It was so fun to drive up with all of them. They are so much fun. When we got there everyone else had already been there and dinner was ready. It was a delicious taco salad. The grownups stayed up pretty late and visited. It was very fun.
The next day we went on hike to Emerald Pools. We did all 3 levels. It was so pretty. The last time I did that hike I was dying of exhuastion, I did so good this time. I was proud of myself. It took us a pretty long time because all of the little kids and Grandma was having a hard time. She did way good though. It was the only hike we did because it took so long!

Little Sloany in her backpack. Her hair was so crazy!

This was a really fun trip. It was fun to be with all the Smith family

Finally Home!

My grandparents came home on Tuesday from their mission in Argentina. The whole family went to the airport early morning to see them. My mom got a big poster so we could make a sign for them. All the grandkids were so excited to see them. They were having a contest to see who would spot them first.


As soon as Gma & Gpa saw us they both started crying then the whole family started crying. It was so good to finally see them!

YAY :)

18 Months Later



Brother and Sister Smith

 My grandparents fly home from Argentina in the morning. I am so excited to see them. They have been gone for what seems like a long 18 months. I am missing some school so I can be at the airport when they get home. They are such a great example to me. It's so awesome that they went on a mission. When I grow up I hope I can be just like them. Love you Gma and Gpa Smith!!!!
