Gold Fork Hot Springs

After we took our family pictures we drove to Gold Fork Hot Springs.  We had been there earlier in the year and really enjoyed it so we thought it would be fun to go back.

It did not disappoint.  It was so relaxing and exactly what I wanted after all these crazy weeks of football and cheerleading.  I could of stayed there forever if someone would of brought me food and drinks.

We did stay a about 3 hours until it got dark and full of the younger/single crowd of people.  The kids had a blast swimming and going between the lower springs.  They are usually less crowded because they are not as hot.  So we let the kids play more down there where they can swim and splash.  The upper pool was a little too hot with the weather still being warm.  We would go up there and were only able to stay about 15 minutes each time until we were all too hot.

When it got dark we sat in the lower pools and watched the stars.  Apparently we have never explained or showed the kids the big dipper before so they had a blast finding it again and again.  Every time we moved around they would look up and say hey there it is.

It was absolutely perfect just sitting there relaxing and talking with Greg watching the kids play.  Ugh, I wish I were back there right now!

On our way home when we were back in town a fox ran across the road in front of us and we stopped and watched it walk through a gas station, it was fun for the kids and I to see, it was a very pretty fox.

We stopped at a grocery store to get dinner since all the restaurants were closed at this point.  Greg grabbed a bag of pizza bites and we just threw them in the microwave at our hotel when we got back.  We all sat in bed watching TV eating pizza bites.  Jaelee and I fell asleep while Greg and Jayse finished the movie.  We woke up the next morning and headed home.  Another great weekend in the books, so glad we made the decision to stay up there!
