Copper mine

Grandma and Grandpa with the girls in front of an old mining car - I'm sure miners would have been beyond thrilled to find 3 such beautiful treasures :)

Jaylee loved all the rocks and kept trying to eat them. In the background of this picture you can see one of the working trucks - they are said to carry over 20 tons of dirt and are the size of a house!

This is one tire from the large, dirt moving trucks. They're said to weigh over 10,000 pounds.

This was Chlo's favorite part - sitting in the bucket. What a nut!

The girls had a blast playing on all the mining cars.

Grandpa is so great with my kids - they're truly lucky to have him.

Chlo loved looking at the mine this way. She said she looked at the sky but didn't see any birds :)

There was a book in the visiters center for people to sign in - Carlee and Chlo each took a turn filling out their information.

Today we had a fantastic adventure day with Grandma, Grandpa and Heather. We had a blast! We headed up to the Kennecott Copper mine to check things out. It was amazing! The girls LOVED looking at the mine and at all the MASSIVE trucks moving the dirt. Carlee of coarse had to go potty and was freaked out by the fact that all they had were porta-potties - yes quite traumatic :) It was awesome to spend a little more time with my parents and sister too. Thanks for the great day!
