Labor Day Camping Trip


YES!! I went camping. Those of you who know me really well, know that I HATE, HATE camping. This is not a new thing I have hated camping since I was young. The bugs, the camp fire, the smell of camp fire on EVERYTHING you own for DAYS and not to mention the squatting. What is fun about this? Kenzie I think may have the same feeling about camping as I do.
We went to Bear Lake and met Bens cousins from Sandy there. It was fun to see them and there kids. We usually only get to see them once a year at Christmas time. We planned this for weeks and I was willing to go only because Ben quilted me into it. Ben said that Kason needed to experience camping being a boy and all. So I put my feeling of camping aside and decided to go.
We slept in the back of our Expediton because there was no way I was pitching a tent. It was really warm and I didn't even hear the wind blowing or the rain.

This is Kenzies idea of camping. Sitting in her princess chair and YES eating Raspberries.

Okay Kenzie has had enough. I felt like she looks right here.

Kason was in heaven. We took his four wheelers and Kason and Dakota rode the heck out of them. Kason thought camping was the greatest. Too bad mom and Kenzie felt differently.

All of the litlle girls. I was so happy that there were girls for Kenzie to play with. By the time we were ready to leave I think all the girls were glad to see Kenzie leaving. Left to Right Paige, Kenzie, Bree and Ashley.

These are the women of the camping trip. I do have to say that the women didn't really have to do much while we were camping. The men cooked and cleaned up and played and entertained the children. Left to right Jen, myself and Kim

These are Bens Twin cousins. Starting left to right.. Bruce,Ben and Brian.
