Utah Trip part 4 (Lava Hot Springs)

Lava Hot Springs
Technically this is NOT Utah, but it was apart of our trip. After we were done with Utah, we travelled on over to Lava to spend the weekend with my sister, Lori and her family at their cabin. Also, my sister, Lindsay was there and my brother, Lincoln.
It was a fun, relaxing weekend. We played with fire, helped clear some of my sisters land, and rode 4-wheelers.
No accidents happened to my family, but my niece, Jules burned her finger real bad when she tried to move a hot dutch oven lid. Also, my nephew, Jonah flipped his 4-wheeler, he's okay. He was a bit shaken up about it, and almost came to tears when he told his mother, ALMOST! He's 11. He wasn't too shaken up though, because a few hours later he stranded himself up the mountain on his ATV when it ran out of gas. Thanks Jonah for teaching my kids what NOT to do.
Here is Jonah and Maggie, as we awaited fireworks.

The moon and the L, for Lava, obviously!

OOOOHHHH!

AAAHHHH!

When we got home from the fireworks, all the little ones were asleep. After us mom's tucked them in , we heard the men talking about a small black critter, attached to the ceiling! YUCK!
BATS!! Yes, 2 bats, in the cabin! After what seemed like an hour, the men folk persuaded 1 to vacate the cabin, the other, they got rid a slightly different way. Poor guy! May he rest in peace.
Here is the totally awesome, but slightly edited version of what we caught on tape!
Enjoy!
Man, what a memorable weekend we had! Thanks Lori and Reed for the awesome trip!
This concludes the Utah Trip posts!
