1st Camping Trip 2010

We wanted to go camping this weekend, but had conflicts on both Friday and Saturday, so we made it a Thursday night quick trip. We went up to one of our favorite spots- Green Canyon. It is so pretty and green right now. We like it because of it's Mtn. Biking trail. We had been up Monday for a FHE Bike Ride and were back on Thursday. It's close enough to home yet feels so peaceful and secluded.

Started off with the boys getting the fire started. We roasted hot dogs (fast and easy). Then, the ever messy marshmallows and smores.

Ammon and Addison spent some time riding the trails and making some jumps. I went up the trail a ways to watch Addison hit some jumps. My thighs are still sore from riding on Monday and then two days of Zumba. My little old legs weren't up for much pedaling this time.

Avery and Ada kept busy running around and also playing cards in the camper. The night came to a quick hault as the ran came down. We settled in for bed around 9:30. The kids were so wound up from all the marshmellows, it took some time for them to stop talking and laughing. We slept in until around 8:00 and decided to to forgo the mud playing. We drove back down to home after having a fun activity as a family. I think we are going again next weekend. Tis the season.
