Labor Day Camping

As the summer came to a close, the girls reminded us that we had not gone camping the WHOLE summer!  Eric had gone camping a million times with the scouts, he and I had done or backpacking trip, and we had done SO many other fun things, but we definitely needed to camp as a family at least ONCE!  Even Owen talked about camping a lot because of Eric going on lots of "tamp-out"s with the scouts.  And so, even though all the good campsites were already reserved, and we're not brave enough to take our kids camping somewhere without bathrooms, we decided to go.
I found a place and it ended up being not great at all, but we still managed to have fun.

 Whitney made friends with our campsite neighbor's dog and played fetch with it for over and hour!  It was super cute.
 meanwhile Katelyn read of course
and Owen was all over the place and VERY dirty!  He was in heaven!
We went on a little hike, and the most fun part was probably when we came over a ridge and cound see really far and discovered it was a great spot for yodelling! :)

The next day we drove the Nebo Loop, which was alright but would have been more fun on a motorcycle :)  This is us at the Utah Valley Overlook.



And last but not least, here is a random picture of how I found Katelyn reading the other day.  FOR REAL!  It was hilarious and she stayed like that for a while. :)
