Last weekend wasn’t just a trip to Bryce Canyon. It wasn’t just my first time being there either. || But I quickly learned this trip was much more than that.

After months of deliberating and planning || My parents finally made the trek to Utah, although after this trip, they may never board an airplane again.

Yuki was also a first timer this weekend in Bryce.

Growing up, we never really went on “family” vacations ||despite missing my sister, it was nice for one weekend to be on vacation.

My mom told someone that she was visiting her son in Utah || Their response was: “I’ve never heard of anyone going to Utah” || No reasons to come here at all…

Lots of thoughts & emotions came over me this weekend || One that I still can’t get out of my head though, is the thought of losing these lands #MonumentsforAll

We arrived at the park on Saturday evening and watched sunset || Made sure not to miss sunrise the following morning.

If you haven’t had a chance to visit Bryce Canyon National Park || You need to, for all we know it may be gone before we know it #ProtectOurLands

These two have been married 39 years || Crazy to think next week I’ll have been around for 31 years of it || I won’t be home for Mother’s Day, or Father’s day, but I wish you the biggest early wishes and can’t thank you enough for visiting my home.
