Labor Day

Friday we went to Sports Authority to buy a tent and lantern...that is the extent of our camping supplies. We wanted to go to Bear Lake but the weather report looked grim so we headed to Yuba. We got the last campsite available. It was the worst site but had a great view. This is the view from our site.

True to charter Carley loved camping. We sat her in the bumbo while we set up the tent and she loved digging in the dirt and playing with the rocks. We got the tent set up but could not figure out the rain fly, we rigged it so it would stay on and hoped it would not rain. This is the fam cuddling in the tent at 6 am...it was pouring rain! Carley loved it she was kicking and squealing all morning.

We hung out with Nicole and Tyler Anderson most of the morning waiting for it to clear up so we could take the wave runner out. As soon as we started packing up to head home the wind died down and it got warm. We have fun hanging out and Joel and i got a good ride on the wave runner before the weather changed again.

We made it home in time to go to a fun football party at the Harding's...thanks again guys. On Sunday we decided that we still wanted our hobo dinners and headed up American Fork Canyon with the Anderson's. We had a lot of fun driving through the canyon. On our quest for a cooking spot we ended up at Cascade Springs and took some cute pictures. I decided it would be a great place to get bridal/groomal pictures done...I really wish i could fit in my wedding dress. I'll have to post the family shots late they are on Nicole's camera. Here are some of Carley. She was about 3 days overdue for a nap and not really into having her photo taken.


Carley looks like we are torturing her...we probably are.

We backtracked a little and found a spot to cook dinner. The guys started right up with the Bear Grills impressions, rubbed their sticks together, and got a fire going.

It was a lot of fun and the hobo dinners were so tasty!!! We had a great weekend with the Anderson's. Thanks guys!
