First Camp Out!

We went camping on Beaver Mountain last weekend with Andrea and Troy. Every year, Andrea's family gets together at 'their' campground on the mountain - we have been lucky enough to be invited for the past 2 years to their family camp-out . . . and we love it! We look forward to it!

This was Josh's first time camping - it was cold, rainy, and wet, but he did great! We actually slept in Cynthia's (Nick's sister) trailer - about 25 minutes away from Andrea's family - so that we didn't have to put up, and clean up a tent - because we left pretty early Saturday - so that we could make it to Logandale, for Koby;s (our nephew) baptism.

It was so cold, so we let Josh sleep in the bed with us - none of us slept well - but it was sure fun to be camping! :)


This is Josh kissing Daddy on Friday night.
Josh had dutch oven potatoes for the first time - and he loved them!
Smiling with Daddy

Little Miss Camrie - such a cutie -
She was walking all over camp!

Do you think those 2 love eachother lots? I sure do!


It got cold, so we put a beanie on Josh,
that Paige's aunt made for him -
So funny!


Alright....enough with the beanie - take it off!


This is Saturday morning - breakfast anyone?

Tanner, Andrea and Troys son,
Celebrated his 3rd birthday on the mountain.
We had a construction party!
Don't you think Josh is SUPER cute in his consturction hat?!!
Tanner, the birthday boy -
He was suppose to be filling up a bucket with dirt,
using only a spoon,
but he wanted to pose for a picture instead!
We sure LOVE this little guy!


Josh again, get this hat off-a-me!
He hates hats!
Hey what is Camrie doing in Josh's Stroller?
She sure is cute!
Oh - Camrie is in the stroller,
because Claudia and Rob had Josh!
Look at him all wrapped up and toasty warm!

We had a BLAST camping! The Smith family is awesome! We love being in the mountains, and it is even better with great friends!

We also celebreated Troy's birthday while we were camping - we don't have any pictures on our camera, because we were manning the camera's for Andrea - she suprised Troy with a trip to NYC for the US Open (tennis) Troy was super suprised - and they are so excited! They'll be gone for a week! Without us! What are we going to do without them? More importantly - is it possible for them to enjoy a vacation without us? We hope so, but we'll see!
