A Visit to "Hole N" The Rock"

We heard of this awesome little place just outside of Moab called a "Hole N" The Rock" it's literally inside the rocks, cool little shops, awesome grounds to check out and a little petting zoo. We had to check it out....



Tripp was more interested in the statue animals than the real ones.....


A Helicaca. (Helicopter)

This whole statue was made out of golf clubs.


Where we kinda wanted to put Tripp most of the day.... JK. But the tantrums would be more entertaining in there I'm sure.


A truck named Mater.


This is a little memorial for the original owners that actually lived in the Hole N The Rock.


Daddy, Tripp and Mater.


A good view of Moab scenery.

An Albino Racoon, and a trouble maker raccoon, he was actually pretty funny. 

Feeding the momma and baby deer.




Feeding the zebra.


Feeding the camel... they said it was 5 years good luck to kiss the camel, we all weighed our options and decided the less slobbery route of sticking with our current luck.


Llamas! The little guy was cute, the big one was interesting... he kept trying to steal all the food, he would reach his neck WAY out of the cage to get the bucket of food we had.

Momma and Tripp


Tripp chatting with the pig.... 


A jeep on top of the mountain.

Whole thing was made with license plates and tools.

The whole place was pretty cool, we now have somewhere to show people when they come to visit. Really cool place. 

Road Trip to Vegas.

We had this awesome long trip planned to Vegas, that got canceled last minute, THEN in another last minute decision, decided to go for it, Friday morning called Nana (she's always up for a get away) to come play with us, packed up and left! Just Heather and Tripp went. Jon stayed behind working and enjoyed a super quiet household.
Mom and Tripp met Nana in Beaver... Tripp slept MAYBE an hour! It was quite the long car ride!

Road Trippin.....JUST entered VEGAS!

Our amazing view from the hotel room! LOVE Green Valley Ranch!

Just Chillin..... AT 5AM!!!!

Swimming! Jon Lopez came to play with us, mom got to relax and Tripp got to play! It was fantastic! Tripp enjoyed playing frisbee, he even made a little friend for a while, totally ditched Jon when she showed up..... short term of course.


Getting rides on Jon's back....... site seeing, didn't see the couple making out in this pic until later. :-)

At Gayle's house, she did a surprise party for Pat, it had an awesome turn out! And lots of kiddos to play with! 

Just chillin at the pool, eating fruit... like a boss.

Playing at the arcade.... he was showing Jon how to drive a motorcycle. :-) He loved the games, however his attention span was about 5 seconds long at each game.....

Playing a dance game with Capri (Gayle's great granddaughter) 

Playing a shooting game with Pat.

Now with Pat and Gage (Gayle's great grandson).

And the drive home..... He slept almost the entire way from Beaver to Moab, we found out why later, he was apparently getting sick, partied too hard in Vegas, he has been sick the entire week since we have been home! 

Faces of Tripp

Mom bought a new blanket for the couch, it has officially become Tripp's.... guess that is what happens with anything orange.

We found this awesome allergy free cookie recipe. Tripp LOVED it and even helped make the cookies.

Mom got a new phone, and Tripp was being entertaining, so we got camera happy.

This boy loves his Popsicles. He refuses to wear a shirt while eating them, because he doesn't want his shirt to get dirty.




Why?



Today he chose to not get his shorts dirty either..... who needs them anyway....?

This will be held for future wedding videos!




So that was entertaining.......
