Camping

We finally went camping. Lexie has wanted to go camping since it stopped snowing. We went up and got a spot Friday afternoon. I then made it up there in time to cook our tin foil dinners! Morris and Janeen came and ate dinner with us. We roasted marshmallows and sat around the fire. Lexie was in heaven with the little stream that ran through our camp. She did fall in more than once. Her shoes and clothes were soaked by the end of the night. She was one happy camper. Brynnlee didn't love the fact that she couldn't crawl anywhere. She was happy to go to bed just she didn't have to be held anymore. I was all geared up for an early morning thinking the sun would wake up the girls. Well I was wrong they slept until 9. JD cooked eggs and pancakes and then we left for a little hike. We hiked to a waterfall, it was a good little hike and perfect for Lexie and JD's sprained ankle. We got back to camp and cleaned up and left. Lexie was sad to be leaving, so we will definitely be camping again soon.

Yes, she slipped and fell in the water (I know a surprise, we were shocked)
The best picture I got of her
Family minus Baby B, she was sleeping in the backpack and I was not going to wake her for a picture
We saw this right as we were pulling out of the camp ground. We were so close to this moose it was awesome.

It looks like you guys have been having a super fun summer. We almost went to North Fork this weekend too, but ended up going to South Fork instead. Unfortunately my kids didn't get the memo about sleeping until 9:00. :)
